Following his first NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season Sunday at Richmond Raceway, perhaps Kyle Larson is starting to heat up at the right time.

The former Cup Series champion best known for his diverse skillset and knack to win races in bunches tackles a unique schedule over the next week, one that features three different race cars in a six-day span.

It all begins Thursday with his very own event, the Kyle Larson presents Late Model Challenge at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tennessee, and carries into the Food City Dirt Race weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway, which culminates Easter Sunday with the 250-lap NASCAR Cup Series race.

Larson will then jet to Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City on April 11 to launch the inaugural High Limit Sprint Car Series season. Thursday’s $20,000-to-win event at Volunteer Speedway and the 2023 High Limit opener at Lakeside Speedway will be streamed live on FloRacing.

“It’s all exciting. Just ready for (High Limit) to get going," Larson said. "Lakeside, I’ve been there for Outlaw races. I’ve seen huge crowds there. It’s a great place for the inaugural race of our season and to afford a purse like that.“

What To Expect At Volunteer Speedway

When: Thursday, April 6 at 7 p.m. Eastern on FloRacing

Last year’s inaugural Kyle Larson Presents, FloRacing Late Model Challenge at Volunteer Speedway churned out record numbers as the event became the most-watched single day event in FloSports history to date.

It was also the largest attendance the third-mile oval had seen in 20 years. As long as the weather cooperates Thursday, Larson’s promotership should produce more viable results, especially considering Cup Series drivers Kyle Busch and Chase Briscoe will also be competing in the event. 

Larson’s best finish at Volunteer came in a runner-up result to Jonathan Davenport in October 2021. Last year, he finished fourth in the Late Model Challenge behind Mike Marlar, Jimmy Owens and Scott Bloomquist. If Larson should win, it’ll be his second Late Model victory of the season. He won with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series on Jan. 27 at Golden Isles Speedway in Brunswick, Georgia.

What To Expect At Bristol Motor Speedway

When: Sunday, April 9 at 7 p.m. Eastern on FOX

Fortune hasn’t necessarily been on Larson’s side in two Bristol dirt races in as many years. In 2021, the eventual Cup champion started from the pole but a lap-54 accident out of his control imbedded the pursuit to victory. He went on to finish 29th, five laps down.

Last year, Larson started fifth and finished fourth, leading 27 laps in the process (from laps 49 to 75). Larson will be going for his second career Cup Series at the Bristol half-mile and a would-be first win, needless to say, on the temporary dirt configuration. His first Cup Series win in Thunder Valley occurred during his 10-victory season in Sept. 2021.

Larson, who just last weekend at Richmond Raceway locked himself into the Cup Series Playoffs by virtue of his first win of the season, is sixth in the regular season standings, 41 points behind Hendrick Motorsports teammate and High Limit Sprint Car Series full-time entry Alex Bowman. Larson’s also led the second-most laps in the Cup Series this season at 363.

What To Expect At Lakeside Speedway

When: Tuesday, April 11 at 7 p.m. Central on FloRacing

Larson’s busy next week, of course, takes him to Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, for the highly-anticipated opener of the 2023 High Limit Sprint Car Series season.

The April 11 program that’s set to pay $50,000-to-win will also be Larson’s season debut in a winged Sprint Car. It’s not abnormal for Larson to first appear in a winged Sprint Car this late in a season. On April 16 in 2021, he won his Sprint Car debut that year with the All Star Circuit of Champions at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.

Surprisingly enough, Larson’s never raced at the 4/10-mile built in 1955. He has, on the other hand, spectated races at the oval outside downtown Kansas City, particularly when the Cup Series is at nearby Kansas Speedway.
