a 4th of July firecracker!!

Attempting to be a voice of reason in a world full of
irrationality. 

Posse denied. 

This is just ridiculous at this point. I'm now convinced he will win Nats. 

Suicide hot line in PA has a busy signal right now.

I was just wondering about this myself. Should be interesting. 

Now that's funny!  

Larson would beat Chuck Norris at the moment

Nah, nobody booed him & he got lots of applause, sold out his T-shirts yesterday. Pa. fans respect great drivers

The big rivalry is with Outlaws, just like Texas/ Oklahoma in college fooball, etc.

I watched him win last 2 nites, He was just better than everyone else.

Hadn't thought about Nationals, definite possibility. I was thinking more of beating Schatz for season championship if he ever went that route. Not that its the least bit likely at this stage of his career.... but he did say in post race interview that he wanted to "go on the road full time" some day. I think "true outlaw" would be more likely than WoO, cause he's so good at wingless & midgets...

Yeah, the capacity crowd erupted every time the 57 passed someone on the top. Great atmosphere. Great racing all night. Hope some of the fans that came just for Kasey and Kyle come back. 

That's good! It's hard to not appreciate his talent if your a sprint fan. May not be outcome some wanted but hey he earned it tonight. We all want winners to not come off the front row and that's what they got! Now how does Larson do the next two nights? This streak surely will end Right?

I don't know, thats why they run the race, right?

But i bet he'll be the favorite...

:"Capacity crowd" is right.... huge last 2 nites!

I wouldn't say nobody. There were a couple of dudes dressed to kill in Posse gear that gave him the finger and booed as he crossed the checkers and then did so several more times during his interview. The reception was overwhelmingly positive and that's good. I've always said, we're mostly great with a few loud assholes mixed in that give us a bad name. I was kind of thinking after Path Valley last night that if he doesn't win anymore, some will argue that he hasn't won at any of the big 3 Posse tracks: Williams Grove, Lincoln or Port yet. Doesn't get anymore "Posse" than it does in the pigeon hills and he spanked them from 9th so there isn't even a front row argument to be made. That whole thing is now dead and that's good because it was stupid to begin with.

Chuck Norris won't run a sprint car because he hates helmets and firesuits so he hires Kyle Larsen. 

Still love husets 

Hagerstown could be a wildcard but I think by now, we're all smart enough to know that if he's in the pits, he's a favorite even if it's his first night with that team and first visit to that particular track. Grandview should be very good for him. It's a high banked, very fast third mile and it's a hammer down kind of joint. Very similar style of racing to Path Valley. Joey Saldana once said that driving a 410 sprint car at Grandview is like flying a fighter jet through a school gymnasium. Grandview is a track that typically favors those with the heaviest right foot, quickest reflexes and biggest balls. Kyle has no apparent deficiencies in any of those departments. McFadden goes good there as does Tyler Walker who won there 3 times during his last stint in PA and at the time, was the man to beat there so he should have some stout competition. Can't wait.

Nah, Chuck Norris won't run a sprint car cause he's older than dirt...

Whether some people want to accept it or not we are being witness to something very special. Just as people who were able to see AJ Foyt and Mario Andretti become the greatest drivers of their era we are seeing Kyle Larson do the same. Like him or not you can not deny that he is the greatest all around driver of the modern era. Sit back and enjoy the show!!

Gotta agree with D1RT. Your witnessing something special. His confidence level is on a high that no one can touch. Let's give codo's to Lee also. One of the best wrench guys there is. Period. One most remember, Kyle comes in off a nascrap deal climbs in and is fast and gets up on the wheel. He and Lee are defineately on the same page.

If Hagerstown doesnt water and prep the top properly, we should all deficate right on the front stretch. Kyle is a gift none of us deserve. 

Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?
