Is that win 24 or 25? Yung Money has got to be in the $250,000 range on this season by now. Good job kid.
It is Larson's 24th, or 46th in two years. Can Kyle get to 50 wins (28 this season) before the end of the year.

Well, as long as his folks don't run out of money I think he has a good chance! 
(how long will it take for "some on here" to admit this kid is the real deal?)

Kyle Hirst was in Paul Silva's #57 at Marysville Raceway Park last night. I wonder how much that ride cost him?

it does not matter how much parents paid to get him rides, he still has to drive to win. There are alot of young drivers that parents spent a ton of money on that were not good of drivers to win in upper class racing. Nothing wrong with trying but you have to win when you get to big time.

Know one of Kyles former crewmembers. Asked him back in the spring, "Is this kid that good?" Crewmembers response..."You have no idea." Rock on kid.

If you didn't realize it, NWFAN was being sarcastic and mocking a certain poster that always talks crap about Kyle.

Looks like Kyle will be in the Finley Farms 77 car this Fri at Oceans Speedway Taco Bravo 360 season finale, then racing the KWS Cotton Classic at Hanford the following night. Maybe Keepinreal will be in attendance to talk his smack directly to Kyle. I know Gary Thomas will be at Hanford.

Larson should easily be voted the Speed Driver of the Year this year, after getting ripped off last year. Can't wait for the Trophy Cup, just wished he was driving the wingless car as well.

my guess kyle gets screwed again this year, but WTF, we may get surprised.
nothing against smoke but larson won in everything smoke did in his career except a cup car and an indy car, and he did it in one season.
then he turned around and did it again. and added stock car wins.
if the award was truly for the performer of the year and not a popularity or PR contest, the winner should be obvious.
to indy and beyond!!

Friday in Watsonville and Saturday in Hanford will be a great weekend of sprint car racing. The cougars and hotties will be all over the Larson/Rico pit area. lol
I like Larson on both tracks. He will be in the hunt to win both nights.

Ascot was the greatest of all time..

larson hasn't had an opportunity to run cup or indy cars. other than that, kyle and tony have both won in the same cars they have run in their careers.
kyle did it all in one season. twice.
smoke has had a great career. kyle is just starting his.
you can nit pick and find something in every ones career that they haven't done.
smoke never won an indy 500.
mark martin has never won a championship
rusty wallace never won a daytona 500
are you going to slam them?
to indy and beyond!!

You really need to get out and see sprint car racing at tracks that are actually good sprint car tracks where constant side by side elbows up racing really takes place. Believe it or not what happens in PA matters next to nothing to the rest of the sprint car loving world. Short tracks are where talent is displayed in its purest form and no Lincoln is NOT what I consider a bullring short track. Kyle is the real deal, no maybe, might be, could be about it. He is going places and doing it by winning in every type of car he gets in.
Cheers!
