KYLE BUSCH MOTORSPORTS:

 { 1 }. - A season after Jones brought Kyle Busch Motorsports its first Truck Series championship, the three-truck team owned by 2015 Sprint Cup champ Kyle Busch comes back in 2016 fully loaded.

Standing in their way, however, is a stout lineup of veteran drivers who, feeling bruised after Jones, on their watch no less, became the youngest champion in series history, look to re-establish their dominance in NASCAR's No. 3 series.
