One such thing is Kyle Larson’s love for Sprint cars.

In the year 2013, Kyle Larson, in association with Justin Marks, decided to dive into the deep end of Sprint car racing. Moreover, the duo formed a new team which was originally called Larson Marks Racing, before settling on Kyle Larson Racing. The team, during its early years, brought on board the services of Shane Stewart, who drove the number 2 Sprint Car, mainly in the World of Outlaws Sprint Cars Series, before a stupendous move to WoO competition in 2015.

After the end of the 2017 season, Larson decided to take full ownership of the team and thus named it Kyle Larson Racing. To look after the day-to-day operations of the team, he hired Paul Silva as General Manager. Things were going pretty smoothly on the team, but in the year 2018, Stewart decided to leave Larson’s team to join CJB sport. During Stewart’s tenure with Kyle Larson Racing, he won 35 Sprint races.

In his opinion, it was really difficult for him to manage the team during the COVID situation that had turned the whole world upside down. This was only one reason, and many believed that there were other factors involved as well behind his decision.
