KYLE LARSON has done it yet again! Theres nothing that kid couldn't win in. It's just mind blowing of the talent he has and just can't be stopped. And you have to admit that Mr. H is more than amazed at what he can do in a racecar!

[@Frostrazor]

KL could race a dump truck! Been watching him win sprint cars here in Sacramento area since he was 14. I knew he would make it big someday. So happy for him. I remember him beating the Outlaws at the Gold Cup in Chico when he was 18 as a local driver - then did it again the next year. Before that, it had been like 20 years since a non-Outlaw driver won Gold Cup. What a night for us to watch our local kid take that trophy!

[@Pod_motorsports189]

I raced against him and Rico in 500 karts they ran circles around all of us 🤣

Going from winning Knoxville nationals next day 3rd at the road course

[@cliff4695]

Enter all the Larson haters saying he's lucky, or it's the car, or he's cheating because he's a Nascar driver. When you're living in the moment of greatness, just sit back and appreciate what this guy can do behind a wheel. By the time it's all said and done, he could very well go down as the greatest to ever do it. Maybe not in championships or wins but between his resume of winning in everything. Hell he could very well win at Indy on a road course tomorrow. Hell he won Watkins Glen last Sunday, another sprint car race Tuesday, Knoxville tonight and one of the favorites tomorrow. Tell me another driver in history that has done that, I'll be here waiting lol.

[@djjazzyjeff1232]

I don't think anyone hates on him, because there's nothing to hate. It's just that he wouldn't be my 1st choice if I had to pick who I'd like to see win it, although it could be worse. The guy's got it, and that's just all there is to it.

[@cliff4695]

@Brian Siler Ganassi never put a lot into nascar, look at that teams entire history. I said resume, not series, not championships. Go watch Donny Schatz interview he just did. "Larson is 1 in 10 million, we will never see talent like this again". Chilli bowl, kings royal, Knoxville nats, outlaw late models, 6 nascar wins, thats just this year. AJ Foyt has forever been considered the best Wheelman, Stewart rivaled him, Larson will go down as the goat to do it when its all done. Stewart said he's the most talented driver he's ever seen and that was last year! Quit lying to yourself bud

[@billmellinger1134]

@Brian Siler I think if Kyle had stayed in sprints full time he would have 20 championships. If he would of started cup with Hendrick he would be on his way to 7 championships. And would get them. When he goes to run different cars he goes against the best there is and beats them.

[@johnnyquist8362]

@Brian Siler "The talent level is nowhere near the same as it used to be" You're correct. It is much greater now.

[@scottt3100]

To be fair this the 1st year in cup he's been in a decent ride. For what he's accomplished at 29 is amazing. Winning consecutive championships isn't easy, but it would also limit one from having a chance to win crown jewels in any other type of car. Kinser, Petty, Earnhardt and Johnson weren't/aren't known as being diverse drivers.

@Brian Siler we all know cup championships in this format mean nothing

@@heijac2998 Agree Cup Championship is more luck then anything. Too many variations out of control of the team to have playoff racing. No need for payoffs should just be overall seasonal points as it once was. Lost a lot of fans over the years because of the chase.

He could go LeMans route and win in a Corvette.

[@dnmoscato92]

Bubba couldn't drive a 305 sprint let alone a world of outlaw

[@jacobmanning7262]

I tend to agree. It's hard for me to see any talent there outside super speedway. He isn't the only guy in Cup like that though. If they can't keep it straight on asphalt I struggle to see potential for dirt. I feel like the top 10 Xfinity drivers are better than the bottom 15-at times 20 drivers in Cup. They just won't make the jump at the cost of a car that has literally no chance, then ruining their reputation and career. 23XII, RCR, and Trackhouse need to find a way to lure JGRs Xfinity guys away

[@PhDShouse]

Listened to this last night on KNIA. When I heard Donny and Larsen on turn four being neck and neck, I couldn’t believe that Donny had made up that much ground that quickly. Shame he couldn’t pull the last minute upset, but one hell of a race. Gio will have another shot next year to win the 360 and 410. Had the pleasure of talking to him in the pits after he won the 360. Kids got one hell of a mindset that can win championships.

[@easttexan2933]

Running out of words to describe KL's talent behind the wheel, but let's not forget that it takes a very talented pit crew/maintenance crew to put a fast, competitive car on the track race after race. KL is no doubt one of the best at "doing his part". It takes a team and this is one helluva team. Congrats to Schatz also. He looked strong all race. Hope things turn for him. I've always said, if KL starts in the top ten, he's the favorite. Great racing.

[@midnight-2021]

As a PA fan since I am from PA, CA is by far the best state at producing the best talent in sprint car racing. The argument is who is the 2nd best state, PA or IN at producing the next best talent for sprint car drivers. PA got bragging rights in this race with a 5th and a 6th. But Tyler Courtney won a Kings Royal and many other IN drivers have had great success this year and recent years. IN can always claim that they have the best sprint car driver ever in Steve Kinser.
