The 2021 NASCAR Cup Series has been a difficult season for many drivers, including Hendrick Motorsports. Following the season finale, Hendrick crew chief Cliff Daniels spoke about how he has been handling the post-season break. There were times when Daniels would barely get any sleep during the season. The crew chief also spoke about what post-season had in store for him. Apparently, he was at Phoenix on the day after the race and ended up staying an extra night. He elected to abstain from being part of Kyle Larson’s victory tour in California. Nevertheless, he had a nice time just catching up with everyone. Now it will be important for him and the team to relax for a bit until they begin preparations for 2022. WHAT DID CLIFF DANIELS SAY ABOUT THE 2021 CAMPAIGN? He said [https://twitter.com/DaveyCenter/status/1463161667609583638?s=20], “I have to some degree. Definitely not the night of the race or the night after the race, I should say. Since then, I’m definitely sleeping better at night. It’s been a fun week so far, we got back in town. Seeing all the smiling faces, just so happy to have the championship back in Hendrick Motorsports. I feel like, based on the season, no matter if it was the #5 or the #9, we wanted it to be in our house. It feels really refreshing and cool to be back here and see all the folks.” Kyle Larson [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2021-11-08T011057Z_2095155888_MT1USATODAY17117794_RTRMADP_3_NASCAR-CUP-SERIES-CHAMPIONSHIP.jpg]Nov 7, 2021; Avondale, Arizona, USA; NASCAR Cup Series driver Kyle Larson (5) celebrates after winning the NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway. Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Now, he and the Hendrick Motorsports team and Kyle Larson will be looking ahead to the 2022 season. The coming year is a big one, as it witnesses the grandiose debuts of the Next Gen cars. There have already been multiple tests over the course of the past two years. The cars will make their race debuts at the LA Coliseum in February. With nobody sure of who has an advantage over the other, there is a possibility of a shake-up in the pecking order. However, one can never rule out the Hendrick Motorsports team. Additionally, Kyle Larson and Cliff Daniels will want to retain their crown for a second consecutive season.

Hendrick Motorsports

What is Hendrick Motorsports? There are a few motorsports teams in the world that can boast of the kind of achievements that Hendrick Motorsports has had. Rick Hendrick&#8216;s organization is the winningest team in the history of the NASCAR Cup Series and after four decades of existence, they are only getting better. It&#8217;s not just the Cup Series that the team has been successful in as they have Xfinity and Truck Series championships in their cabinet as well. When it comes to dominance in stock car racing, no team has ever matched up to the brilliance of HMS no matter what obstacles have come their way.

Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports The history of Hendrick Motorsports Back when NASCAR&#8217;s popularity was on a meteoric rise, a car dealership owner by the name of Rick Hendrick founded a race team called All-Star Racing along with Harry Hyde. The following year, its name was changed to what fans are familiar with today, Hendrick Motorsports. At the time, things were not easy for Hendrick and there were genuine fears about the team being forced to shut down operations in its very first season. However, when Geoff Bodine defied the odds to win their first race in 1984 at Martinsville, a lot of people, including Hendrick himself, rested easy.

(Photo by Rainier Ehrhardt/Getty Images) The team&#8217;s expansion as a prominent Cup Series competitor came to fruition in 1986 when they upgraded from one car to two and then to three in 1987. In 2002, Rick Hendrick decided to have four cars in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competition and that has been their lineup ever since. Several great racers have had the honor of driving for the legendary team but their first-ever Cup Series champion was Jeff Gordon in 1995. Today, the 52-year-old is the vice-chairman and co-owner of the team and he also has an equity stake in the #24 team which currently has William Byron as its driver. Why is the team named Hendrick Motorsports? Well, it is quite obvious why Hendrick Motorsports is called Hendrick Motorsports. The team is the brainchild of Rick Hendrick so it seems only fair that it is named after the great motorsports veteran. However, when the organization was founded in 1984, it was called All-Star Racing. The rebranding of the team took place just one year into its existence but since then, it has remained the same. Today, the name Hendrick Motorsports is synonymous with success in NASCAR. Hendrick Motorsports net worth 2024 Being the most successful Cup Series team sure has its perks and one of them is its sheer value. Today, Hendrick Motorsports is among the richest motorsports organizations the world has ever known. The team&#8217;s net worth as of 2024 has not been made available as of yet but a Forbes report in 2020 pegged it to be at a whopping $315 million. That number has certainly increased as the team has won two Cup Series titles since then. Their success has also earned an astronomical amount of personal wealth for Rick Hendrick, whose net worth is estimated to be a whopping $1.1 billion.

Mandatory Credit: Mike Dinovo-USA TODAY Sports But it&#8217;s not just the race wins and championships that determine a team&#8217;s net worth. A lot of that has to do with the sponsorship deals and endorsements that the team has. Hendrick Motorsports has the backing of some of the biggest companies in the world like Chevrolet, Ally, Coca-Cola, and Hooters just to name a few. Reports in 2023 also suggested that the team was investing in a $23 million facility in Concord which would only add to the team&#8217;s earnings in the future. Hendrick Motorsports racing drivers When the team was first started in 1984, Hendrick Motorsports only had one car in the Cup Series. However, as time went by and they racked up the wins and championships, Rick Hendrick began his expansion. In 2002, the team had four cars in the competition and that is the case today as well. The four teams that race full-time for the team in NASCAR&#8217;s biggest competitions are the #5, #9, #24 and #48. Each of these numbers has a lot of history behind them. The #5, currently being driven by Kyle Larson, was the first car that Rick Hendrick fielded when the team was founded in 1984. Its first driver was Geoff Bodine who won a race in that very season at Martinsville to get the ball rolling for the future. The car&#8217;s first Cup Series championship came in 1996 when Terry Labonte won it all and its second came in 2021 with Larson. Several other greats have also driven for the number, such as people like Ricky Rudd, Kyle Busch, Kasey Kahne, and Mark Martin.

Mandatory Credit: David Yeazell-USA TODAY Sports The #9 has only ever seen one full-time driver but that man is well on his way to becoming one of the greatest the sport has ever seen. Chase Elliott has been one of the brightest stars in stock car racing for a while now and he won his only Cup Series championship so far with the #9 in 2020. He used to drive the #24 but was renumbered after the 2017 season to honor his father, Bill Elliott, who drove a #9 for most of his career.

(Photo by Sean Gardner/Getty Images) The #24 is what brought success to Hendrick Motorsports in terms of championships for the first time. Jeff Gordon was the driver of the car when the team won their first-ever Cup Series championship and the NASCAR legend went on to win three more titles with the same number. The #24 holds a legendary status in all of NASCAR and today, it is being driven by one of the brightest and most talented racers in stock car racing, William Byron.

Mandatory Credit: Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports And then there&#8217;s the #48. It is the most successful number in modern-day NASCAR as the legendary Jimmie Johnson won a whopping seven Cup Series titles in that car. The #48 is the car that holds the record for winning the most number of successful Cup Series championships with five with Johnson. Anyone who gets the opportunity to sit behind the wheel of the #48 has massive shoes to fill and as of 2024, that person is Alex Bowman. The likes of Noah Gragson and Josh Berry have also raced in it on a few occasions. And then there was the #88 which was also driven by Bowman but made famous by Dale Earnhardt Jr. He might not have won a Cup Series championship with the car but he certainly won a lot of fans in it during his time at the team, and several race victories.

Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-USA TODAY Sports Hendrick Motorsports partnerships and endorsements Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization has some of the biggest partnership deals in NASCAR today with some of the biggest companies in the world. One of the racing team&#8217;s oldest relationships is with Chevrolet, which has been its engine manufacturer since the beginning. As per an article on the Hendrick Motorsports website, Mr H had said the team was lucky to have been with Chevrolet since the beginning. Apart from the American car manufacturer, HMS has partnership deals with companies like NAPA, Ally, Valvoline, Axalta, Hooters, Coca-Cola, and Liberty University. The interesting one among all the aforementioned organizations is Liberty University which sponsors the #24 car of William Byron. It has been with the Cup Series star since 2014 and the current contract runs until the end of the 2026 season. The partnership has helped the university as HMS backs the School of Engineeringâ€™s Formula SAE effort which is one for the future as it deals with EV technology. Hendrick Automotive went one step further to help develop a degree specialization in automotive dealership management. Hendrick Motorsports investments A team the size and success of Hendrick Motorsports will make investments where it sees fit but one such attempt had not sat well with fans. In 2023, reports emerged that the Charlotte Motor Speedway had sold a whopping 82 acres of land to an entity related to Hendrick Motorsports for $22.6 million. It sent fears of the iconic race track suffering the same fate as Fontana. As per the Charlotte Business Journal, the land will be used for a couple of advanced manufacturing projects under Mr H. After the sale, the city of Concord gave the green light to Rick Hendrick for the project to be undertaken, which will reportedly have an investment of $23.7 million. It will be interesting to see if the project affects the Charlotte Motor Speedway in any way and if so, how. Hendrick Motorsports major achievements and awards It is no wonder that Hendrick Motorsports is one of the biggest teams in stock car racing today as it is the most successful. The team has won more races and more championships than any other team in the history of the Cup Series. They have 14 Cup Series championship wins and more than 300 race wins so far in their illustrious history. Rick Hendrick&#8217;s organization became the team with the most race wins in the Cup when they overtook Petty Enterprises in 2021 and won their 269th race. The team&#8217;s 14 Cup Series successes have come with drivers like Jeff Gordon (4), Jimmie Johnson (7, including 5 in a row), Terry Labonte (1), Chase Elliott (1) and Kyle Larson (1). But the Cup is not where the success story stops. Mr H&#8217;s team has won the NASCAR Xfinity Series once (2003) and the Truck Series on 3 occasions (1997,1999, 2001). For his achievements in the competition, team owner Rick Hendrick was bestowed with the honor of being inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2017.Â  But that did not stop his ambitions from expanding onto the global stage. HOMESTEAD, FL &#8211; NOVEMBER 20: Jimmie Johnson, driver of the #48 Lowe&#8217;s Chevrolet, poses for a portrait after winning the 2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. (Photo by Jonathan Ferrey/NASCAR via Getty Images) Hendrick Motorsports and Garage 56 One of the first steps to that expansion was the team&#8217;s shocking run in the 2023 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The project was called Garage 56 and Hendrick Motorsports brought a roaring modified stock car to the south of France to run the iconic race. It was truly a sight to see on the track as the huge #24 car completed the laps. The team had three of the best drivers in the world &#8211; Jimmie Johnson, Jenson Button, and Mike Rockenfeller. The goal was to finish the race which the team did in P39 out of 62. Certainly an impressive result for a debutante team. Hendrick Motorsports&#8217; fateful plane crash The team may enjoy its time as one of the biggest race teams in the world right now but the road has been a rocky one for Rick Hendrick and others involved. The legendary team owner suffered an unthinkable personal tragedy in 2004 when a plane crash took the lives of several people he considered near and dear, including his son Ricky Hendrick. The others who met their demise were John Hendrick and his daughters, Kimberly and Jennifer Hendrick, Jeff Turner, and Randy Dortom. They were all employees at HMS. The accident was attributed in part to pilot error, both of whom also lost their lives in the crash. Other passengers included Joe Jackson and Scott Lathram.

<h1 style="text-align: center">Kyle Larson: Net Worth 2024, Relationships, NASCAR and More</h1>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Kyle Larson?</b></h2>
Kyle Miyata Larson is one of the most prolific and successful motorsports drivers in NASCAR today. The Hendrick Motorsports star is a former Cup Series champion and is one of the most consistent drivers in the Cup Series. However, stock car racing is not the only thing Larson is prolific in. He is a master sprint car racer and will be trying his hand at IndyCar in 2024. Larson is also the co-owner of the fast-rising sprint car racing competition, High Limit Racing.

<img class="wp-image-2075684 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1599038101.jpg" alt="Kyle Larson" width="1920" height="1280" />

(Photo by Jonathan Bachman/Getty Images)
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Kyle Larson's early life</b></h2>
Kyle Larson was born on June 31, 1992, in Elk Grove, California. The HMS star was educated at Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove itself. Racing and school are difficult to balance but Larson had a lot of help from his mother who was a teacher. It's safe to say that the 2021 Cup Series champion was kind of an all-rounder when he was in school.

The HMS driver was born into a family of racers. His father, Mike Larson, was a racer as well. His mother, Janet Larson, is Japanese-American and both of his grandparents spent time in an internment camp during World War II. His middle name is Miyata which is a common surname in several regions in Japan. He has a sister whose name is Andrea.

Early on in his career in motorsports, Kyle Larson was a prolific dirt-track racer with several prestigious wins in the King's Royal, Knoxville Nationals, and the Chili Bowl Nationals. He also won the 2011 4-Crown Nationals at Eldora Speedway. This saw him win three types of USAC races at a go in a single night, becoming only the second driver to achieve so. The following year saw him earn six victories in USAC National Midget races, which included the Turkey Night Grand Prix.

His achievements caught the eye of the teams in NASCAR and Kyle Larson made his full-time debut in the 2013 Nationwide Series with Turner Scott Motorsports. He had run a few races in the Truck Series in 2012 with the same team.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Kyle Larsonâ€™s wife and children</b></h2>
The Hendrick Motorsports star married Katelyn Sweet on September 26, 2018. The couple has 3 children together, Owen Miyata Larson, Audrey Layne Larson, and Cooper Donald Larson. Cooper is the youngest and was born on the last day of 2022. However, when it comes to Audrey, the family shares some bad news. <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nascar-news-same-quote-kyle-larsons-wife-reveals-daughter-suffers-from-the-same-horrific-disease-as-jada-pinkett-smith/">The parents revealed how their daughter has been impacted by Alopecia</a> since she was 18 months old, in honor of Alopecia Awareness Month. Since then, she has had hair loss, but they delayed going public with the news.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1192530 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Kyle-Larson-wife-Katelyn-Larson-son-Owen-and-daughter-Audrey-NASCAR-trophy-768x512-1.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="512" />
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Kyle Lason's net worth 2024Â </b></h2>
As of 2023, Kyle Larson has amassed a net worth of $12 million as per Celebrity Net Worth including his race earnings, endorsements, and other ventures. The Hendrick Motorsports star's current contract with the team runs until 2026 and as per reports, he makes an estimated $10 million each year as part of that deal. He also has several sponsorship deals with Target, Chevrolet, Oakley, Credit One Bank, iRacing, and Alpinestars.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Kyle Larsonâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Making his racing debut in outlaw karts at the age of seven, Kyle Larson has always been a talented multitasker trying his hands in various tourneys. Throughout his childho0d and adolescence, the driver started his professional racing career with open wheel-cars in the United States Auto Club (USAC) and the Silver Crown, among others. He also participated in the World of Outlaws and racked up his first win in the division at the Placerville Speedway, as one of the youngest drivers to ever compete. After winning Rookie of the Year in 2011, the racer then divulged his attention toward the NASCAR K &amp; N Pro Series and the ARCA Series.

In 2012, he was signed as a developmental driver for Earnhardt Ganassi Racing. In June of the same year, Larson won his first NASCAR K &amp; N Pro Series East race at Gresham Motorsports Park. He also went on to win the 2012 NASCAR K&amp;N Pro Series East Championship beating the likes of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/corey-lajoie/">Corey LaJoie</a>. On the other hand, his ARCA career took some time to take off as his first win in the division came two years after his debut, in 2014, at Pocono Raceway.

Larson's NASCAR Truck Series debut came in 2012 and he won his first race the next year, at Rockingham Speedway, driving for Turner Scott Motorsports. And it is around the same time that his Xfinity And <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/nascar-cup-series/">Cup Series</a> career took off as well. Debuting the top faction for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/chip-ganassi-racing/">Chip Ganassi Racing</a> in 2014, the driver finished 17th in the points standings in his first year. As for his <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/nascar-xfinity-series/">Xfinity</a> Series career debut in 2013, the driver finished 8th in the final standings while driving for Turner Scott Motorsports.

One of Kyle Larson's earliest sponsor after he moved to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/hendrick-motorsports/">Hendrick Motorsports</a> from Chip Ganassi Racing in 2021 was HendrickCars.com. The Hendrick Automotive Group, via the HendrickCars.com brand, became a majority sponsor for the #5 driver for the 2022 and 2023 Cup Series seasons. Backing Larson for some 35 races in his NASCAR schedule, the brand also committed itself to sponsoring the racer in all non-NASCAR events.

As the division's first Japanese-American driver, Larson also paid an ode to his heritage when, in 2023, he landed an official restaurant partner in the form of JINYA Ramen Bar. In this extensive agreement, according to an official press release by Hendrick Motorsports, the brand was set to feature on the driver's post-race hat, firesuit and even his team apparel.

Expressing his excitement, JINYA Founder and CEO Tomo Takahashi said at the time, <em>"Not only is Kyle a NASCAR star because of his supreme talent on the track, but heâ€™s also the sportâ€™s first-ever Asian-American driver, so we are thrilled to partner with him. Kyle has already picked up two wins this season and we canâ€™t wait to see him make many more trips to victory lane while wearing the JINYA logo!"</em>

Additionally, ahead of the 2024 Cup season, automotive services and lubricant brand, Valvoline also announced its bid to back Kyle Larson along with his teammate William Byron. <em>â€œValvoline will be the primary sponsor for Kyle Larson in three races (Phoenix, Sonoma and the Chicago Street Race) for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season,â€Â </em>an official press release said.

In another exciting development, Kyle Larson is also set to drive for McLaren Racing for the 2024 Indianapolis 500 as he attempts the revered 'Double Duty' on May 26. Apart from that, tool manufacturer, Cincinnati Inc also joined hands with him ahead of his HMS debut.

One thing's for sure. The driver sure knows how to attract sponsors!
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Kyle Larson's investments</b></h2>
Just like any other multi-talented personality, Kyle Larson has time and again shown how easy it is to dabble in multiple things at once. From competing to owning, the driver knows how to do it all. Merely at the age of 21, in 2013, Kyle Larson started exploring his entrepreneurial side which saw the formation of his sprint car and midget racing team, in association with fellow driver Justin Marks, named Larson Marks Racing. Primarily competing in the World of Outlaws, the team has had its highs and lows. The team had a fairly successful run with driver Shane Stewart who won at the team's second-ever start at the Eldora Speedway. Apart from that, the driver was also the 2015 Kings Royal victor at the Eldora Speedway yet again. Stewart was also won the Winter Heat Sprint Car Showdow during the 2015-16 off-season, besides finish second in the WoO points standings in 2015.

But, things soon went downhill. While Kyle Larson taking over the sole ownership of the team in 2017 and renaming it Kyle Larson Racing seemed promising, the COVID-19 pandemic proved to be an adversity. In October of 2020, it was announced that the team would cease operations after the season was over.

While the closure might be disheartening, it didn't dampen his spirit. Soon after, in 2021, the driver announced the formation of a sprint car series, with his brother-in-law and five-time WoO champion Brad Sweet. The first season in 2023, saw 12 races. Kyle Larson won the inaugural season of the series. As for High Limit Racing's 2024 plans, the series has expanded the schedule to a staggering 60 races. It will also offer $5.8 million in prize money. Now that's what we can call an epic comeback!

The two drivers had a moment in the 2023 Cup Series season in Kansas. Hamlin nudged Larson into the wall to take the victory of the race. The two drivers expressed their disappointment with one another and even the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/stewart-haas-racing/https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/joe-gibbs-racing/">Joe Gibbs Racing</a> driver's comments on the Actions Detrimental podcast frustrated his rival.

<em>â€œI donâ€™t think thereâ€™s a reason to be mad at him,â€</em> Larson had said on an episode of the High Limit Room podcast. <em>â€œWe were racing aggressively on the last lap for a win, and he was way faster than me. Just the only thing that I guess I get frustrated with is on his deal, his podcast, he says, â€˜I race a certain way, but Iâ€™ve never had to reach out to him to apologize about anything.'"</em>

Kyle Larson

Kyle Larson: Net Worth 2024, Relationships, NASCAR and More Who is Kyle Larson? Kyle Miyata Larson is one of the most prolific and successful motorsports drivers in NASCAR today. The Hendrick Motorsports star is a former Cup Series champion and is one of the most consistent drivers in the Cup Series. However, stock car racing is not the only thing Larson is prolific in. He is a master sprint car racer and will be trying his hand at IndyCar in 2024. Larson is also the co-owner of the fast-rising sprint car racing competition, High Limit Racing. BROOKLYN, MICHIGAN &#8211; AUGUST 07: Kyle Larson, driver of the #5 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet, laughs on the grid prior to a weather delayed restart of the NASCAR Cup Series FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway on August 07, 2023 in Brooklyn, Michigan. (Photo by Jonathan Bachman/Getty Images) Â Kyle Larson&#8217;s early life Kyle Larson was born on June 31, 1992, in Elk Grove, California. The HMS star was educated at Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove itself. Racing and school are difficult to balance but Larson had a lot of help from his mother who was a teacher. It&#8217;s safe to say that the 2021 Cup Series champion was kind of an all-rounder when he was in school. The HMS driver was born into a family of racers. His father, Mike Larson, was a racer as well. His mother, Janet Larson, is Japanese-American and both of his grandparents spent time in an internment camp during World War II. His middle name is Miyata which is a common surname in several regions in Japan. He has a sister whose name is Andrea. Early on in his career in motorsports, Kyle Larson was a prolific dirt-track racer with several prestigious wins in the King&#8217;s Royal, Knoxville Nationals, and the Chili Bowl Nationals. He also won the 2011 4-Crown Nationals at Eldora Speedway. This saw him win three types of USAC races at a go in a single night, becoming only the second driver to achieve so. The following year saw him earn six victories in USAC National Midget races, which included the Turkey Night Grand Prix. His achievements caught the eye of the teams in NASCAR and Kyle Larson made his full-time debut in the 2013 Nationwide Series with Turner Scott Motorsports. He had run a few races in the Truck Series in 2012 with the same team. Kyle Larsonâ€™s wife and children The Hendrick Motorsports star married Katelyn Sweet on September 26, 2018. The couple has 3 children together, Owen Miyata Larson, Audrey Layne Larson, and Cooper Donald Larson. Cooper is the youngest and was born on the last day of 2022. However, when it comes to Audrey, the family shares some bad news. The parents revealed how their daughter has been impacted by Alopecia since she was 18 months old, in honor of Alopecia Awareness Month. Since then, she has had hair loss, but they delayed going public with the news. Kyle Lason&#8217;s net worth 2024Â  As of 2023, Kyle Larson has amassed a net worth of $12 million as per Celebrity Net Worth including his race earnings, endorsements, and other ventures. The Hendrick Motorsports star&#8217;s current contract with the team runs until 2026 and as per reports, he makes an estimated $10 million each year as part of that deal. He also has several sponsorship deals with Target, Chevrolet, Oakley, Credit One Bank, iRacing, and Alpinestars. Kyle Larsonâ€™s career timeline Making his racing debut in outlaw karts at the age of seven, Kyle Larson has always been a talented multitasker trying his hands in various tourneys. Throughout his childho0d and adolescence, the driver started his professional racing career with open wheel-cars in the United States Auto Club (USAC) and the Silver Crown, among others. He also participated in the World of Outlaws and racked up his first win in the division at the Placerville Speedway, as one of the youngest drivers to ever compete. After winning Rookie of the Year in 2011, the racer then divulged his attention toward the NASCAR K &amp; N Pro Series and the ARCA Series. In 2012, he was signed as a developmental driver for Earnhardt Ganassi Racing. In June of the same year, Larson won his first NASCAR K &amp; N Pro Series East race at Gresham Motorsports Park. He also went on to win the 2012 NASCAR K&amp;N Pro Series East Championship beating the likes of Corey LaJoie. On the other hand, his ARCA career took some time to take off as his first win in the division came two years after his debut, in 2014, at Pocono Raceway. Larson&#8217;s NASCAR Truck Series debut came in 2012 and he won his first race the next year, at Rockingham Speedway, driving for Turner Scott Motorsports. And it is around the same time that his Xfinity And Cup Series career took off as well. Debuting the top faction for Chip Ganassi Racing in 2014, the driver finished 17th in the points standings in his first year. As for his Xfinity Series career debut in 2013, the driver finished 8th in the final standings while driving for Turner Scott Motorsports.
