I could be wrong but I think Steve was in the TSR car all year and Kraig was in the SKR car all year, both of them on the WoO tour.   Steve finished 8th and Kraig 9th in points in 2014.



2010 and then 2012-2014 Steve drove for TSR while Kraig drove for Steve. In the overall picture if the Outlaws say it's a conflict of interest as some may feel, all they have to say is it wasn't really a problem with Larson driving for Silva the past few years so why would it on a full time basis. Didn't have a problem the night he drove Stenhouse's car while he owned another car. WRG would look at it as, Kyle Larson wants to race full time with us? Cha ching $$$$.

Having said I don't think he will be in a TSR car. Most likely the Silva car, his own car, or similar  schedule to this year, or SHR. The article that spiked this interest made reference to AJ Foyt and an inquiry from Robin Miller about the Indy 500. With that said, I think he is thinking SHR. Something I found out recently was Tony is part owner of Rush Truck Centers. Interesting if you are an owner of the sponsor (or two with Haas) it's easier to allocate funds for your own reasons. I think chances are a little better for Larson to be in the 14 next year with Bowyer going to TV

I'm not even sure Larson going to SHR and driving the 14 car would make it worth watching NASCAR again.   Larson was the only reason I'd watch NASCAR the last few years, and if he wasn't in contention at any given race I lost interest and quit watching.   I've quit watching totally now, especially given recent events and the overall stupidity of it.   Between that and the changes they're making in the cars next year even having Larson there again probably won't interest me.

It's tough.  I tuned into Pocono the last 2 days and Bell ran really well day one and was running up front day 2 before wrecking.  All interest was gone at that point.  I have a few drivers in a local auction that I participate in.  That is the only reason I will tune in for short spurts.  Thank good for DVR/TIVO.   The racing has been terrible.

Someone had to remind me they were on Saturday. My interest level is at an all time low.
