    Default Do Kyle Larson's accomplishments on dirt make him a generational talent?

    http://insidecircletrack.com/2021/01...tional-talent/

    Yes, he wins on dirt. But to be a generational talent doesn't he need to win more in his primary field?

    Kyle won 6 races in his last 4 years at Ganassi. Chip has 14 total NASCAR wins in 20 years of racing. Do the math. Now Kyle has moved to Hendrick Motorsports. I'd say sky's the limit.

    Geez, Richard, dirt is his “primary field”.

    NASCAR is just a paycheck.

    obviously an article by pavement snobs. NASCAR snobs think their drivers are the greatest talent. But we all al know better than that. Most of those kids bring a sponsor with them to secure a ride.

    Pretty dumb take IMO.

    If anyone doesn’t think he’s a generational talent on dirt, I’m not sure what you’re watching.

    Just enjoy the racing. He does make it exciting. Is he AJ Foyt or Mario Andretti? Hell no. AJ went to Lemans having never seen the track before and won the 24 hour race. Mario finished 2nd in a treacherous F1 race in the rain. Scariest race of all time. There are many outstanding drivers out there.

    Top 4. 1 Andretti-won on dirt, Nascar, Indycar, and F1, 2 AJ Foyt-won on dirt, Nascar, and Indycar. 3 Tony Stewart-won on dirt, Nascar. 4 Kyle Larson won in every kind of dirt, Nascar. Kyle could move up if he knocks out a couple Cup titles. Doubt anyone will ever duplicate Andretti's rare feat.

    These guys are not understanding where he came from. He's a dirt racer in the cup series not a cup racer dabbling on dirt.

    Yea 1997 when the cars were split between Champ Car and Indy Racing League. Tony won the IRL when they ran a 10 race season.
