Kyle Larson Clarifies His Role in High Limit Racing
Kyle Larson has clarified his role in High Limit Racing, which he co-founded with Brad Sweet in 2022 to provide greater visibility for Sprint Car drivers. The series has evolved from a mid-week event to a national showcase, featuring increased payouts, with Larson participating most weekends despite conflicts with his Cup Series schedule.
While in Knoxville for the Nationals and a Cup Series race in Richmond, Larson addressed misconceptions about his financial involvement, stating he does not profit from the series and competes solely as a driver. He highlighted that the series aims to enhance earnings for drivers and teams, with a planned $18 million payout structure by 2026.
Despite his achievements, including winning the inaugural High Limit Racing championship, Larson will miss the Knoxville Nationals due to his NASCAR commitments. He expressed acceptance of this situation, focusing on his upcoming races and maintaining a strong competitive mindset.
