Good article! These people that are comparing him to Casey Atwood and Joey Logano need to read it. They don't understand that they were brought up under completely different circumstances than Larson.

I agree, good article.  I also have a gut feeling he will be better in Sprint Cup than Nationwide.  Gordon and Stewart both fared better in Sprint Cup than they did in Nationwide.  (at least early on in Nationwide-Tony has won some races after already establishing himself in Cup) 

Logano is going to be someone to deal with for the next 10-15 year I think, but it took him a while to get going.  I don't think the learning curve will be as steep for Larson.  Atwood was a one trick pony--no offense to him, but he just was not someone who jumped into a new circumstance and had it mastered by the middle of the race.  I think Larson is far from a one trick pony and he will adapt very well to the Sprint Cup scene.  Just hope Chip's equipment is good enough.  Time will tell.
