The documents, filed Wednesday, indicated Busch was upset Sept. 26 after a poor qualifying run to set up the first Chase for the Sprint Cup elimination race.
“He was verbally abusive to her and said he wished he had a gun so that he could kill himself,” the documents say.
According to the documents, Driscoll said Busch, 36, was verbally abusive and accused her of “having spies everywhere and having a camera on the bus to watch him.”
He grabbed her face and smashed her head three times against the wall next to the bed, the documents say.
Driscoll, 36, says she pushed the 2004 Sprint Cup champion away from her and fled the bedroom, taking safety in a neighboring motorhome where she put an ice pack on her head and neck. She said the incident resulted in severe pain, difficulty breathing and neck bruising.
A hearing has been scheduled for Dec. 2.
