One after another, Kyle Larson‘s been dropping bombshells in the community with highly unexpected decision-making. The recent instance was his Chili Bowl return despite parting ways in 2022, with no possibility of a comeback anytime soon. Clearly, the Hendrick Motorsports star knows very well how to keep the community glued to the sport, which is evident from his actions.

Larson’s A-feature Chili Bowl ended on a displeasing note. With a DNF in the qualification race, the HMS driver suffered a brutal setback compared to the hopes he went with. Regardless, his persistence to race knows no bounds as he unravels his unwavering desire to go global. However, the road is rocky!

Chili Bowl misfortune aside, Kyle Larson acknowledges logistical and financial roadblocks of racing down under

Although Kyle Larson’s love for racing brought him back to Chili Bowl, his entanglement in a crash left his suspension damage irreparable, and his impeccable jump from P20 to P11 rendered useless. But Larson is steadfast to race.

Post conversation with Larson about his dirt track stint, motorsports reporter Matt Weaver brought up a question regarding his future at Tulsa and asked, “Sounds like you might run a sprint car race next year around this time. When could be the next time we see you here in Tulsa?” 

Known for his infamous history of making unpredicted announcements, Larson stood by his persona as he put the Tulsa thought on the curb for a bit and unraveled his global plans.

Larson said, “I don’t know, I mean it’s just so far away. I definitely want to go to Australia, you see there’s a lot to work out there. I don’t want to go with anybody else…it just takes a lot of money to go there and organizing with logistics and stuff. I don’t know many people down there…kinda like I said it takes support financially and just everything to kind of make it all work.”

International logistics for motorsports is undoubtedly a mentally and financially exhausting task because of which many fear even entering the sport in the first place. But not Kyle Larson!

Portraying hopes for the hurdle to get clear, Larson expressed words of wisdom but also emphasized another hindrance that could deter his chances of Australia. He said, “Hopefully we can figure that out, you know, that would be a lot of fun…I don’t want to spend three weeks down there like Brad [Sweet] is right now, Rico [Abreu] is down there for gosh like five or six weeks but I don’t want to be down there, I can’t be down there that long, I don’t want to be down there that long. So I don’t know maybe it would open the opportunity to come home a little early and get to come here [Chili Bowl].”

And finally, before heading back, Larson smirked as he accepted his ghost-mode personality and said, “We’ll see, but my schedule is always crazy so you never really know where I’ll be.“
