Yeah, it feels really good. It was a lot like this last year. I was probably a little rusty the first night, a lot like the first night last year. The second night, let’s see, we just weren’t as good, but we were getting better.

Kyle Larson told FloRacing.

Further talking about the point, he asserted that his team gave him a strong car for the main event and it played a major role in the success. Some lucky breaks he got between the race also played role in him earning the success, that he is proud for himself as well as his team.

Then we were able to just put it together tonight and dial in the race car, and just make some good decisions when I needed to and have some good fortune along the way. All the ingredients that you need to win races, especially big ones. Just proud of the team and proud of myself, too for not plugging the wall and getting frustrated. So, yeah, it was just fun.

Kyle Larson added.

The comments from the Hendrick Motorsports champion shows he has work hard and grind the result. For the Larson fans that came to see him at Perth, they got a show to remember and it would be interesting to see how he is going take this momentum he has to win more races in the post-season as well as the 2026 Cup season.
