Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images A public memorial service for NASCAR champion Kyle Busch will take place at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Oct. 9.
The celebration of Busch's life, achievements and lasting legacy will follow the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race.
Busch, the winningest driver across NASCAR's three national series, died on May 21 at age 41 after a sudden illness.
"The service will be free and open to the public, providing fans, members of the motorsports industry, friends and loved ones an opportunity to come together in remembrance and tribute to one of racing's most influential and accomplished competitors," NASCAR posted on its website.
Additional details about the service, including specific times and speakers, will be announced in the coming days as plans are finalized.
Busch won the NASCAR Cup Series championship in 2015 and 2019. His 234 combined wins across multiple series include the most ever in both the Craftsman Truck Series (69) and O'Reilly Auto Parts Series (102).
