Fans of Sprint Car racing or NASCAR Cup Racing or both can talk all day about Larson’s winless streak in Cup and his sixth place finish at Richmond Saturday night as well as the merits of high-tailing it off to the Knoxville Nationals AFTER the Cup Race Saturday night. Above, he describes the trip.
BUT everyone has to admit - it’s pretty amazing that he was able to race and win at Knoxville in the early morning hours after the Richmond night race. Sorry if there are doubters but I stand my ground on being impressed he was able to accomplish the feat.
The man is a racer.
Larson’s Cup Series winless streak is certain to end soon. Right?
Larson, who did media interviews this week after his Knoxville Nationals win was asked by a number of media about the challenges he has faced this season.
He has been very clear that it is not just him and his team and he feels a turnaround is imminent.
Larson’s certainty should bolster the morale of the Hendrick/Larson fans. Proof, of course, is always in the pudding.
Another reason to watch what he’s able to pull off with two races to go before the Chase field is set.
