    Owens, Overton and B Shep ? Larson is not going to beat those 3 on a regular basis. The fields are full of talent and equipment. Oh well. I guess we will have to wait and see if my predictions are true. 😜. Larson will bring fans and promote the sport. That is the great thing about this (if it happens).

        If Kevin Rumley can produce a fast race car. Kyle Larson can produce a win. You guys are forgetting that a subpar race car made Jimmy Owens look bad after he left the Bloomquist cars. Now he's found speed and looks like the GOAT again. Bshepp was a nobody until he got in a good car. Josh Richards was the man til he got with a crappy team. The right car with all the grip goes a long way, much further now than ever. Back in the mid 90's and early 2000's nobody had grip and driver a was a big part of it. But just like NASCAR, DLM racing is 90% car.

          Good analysis.

            Yes it is. If Kevin doesn't get too cute with the car, Larson will deliver.

                I don't know about that. He won more races and had better results for Chip in the time he was there than all of his other drivers combined over the years.

                I'm more puzzled as to why Larson even wants to get in a late model. He's proven he can be king of the open wheel sprint/midget class. The WoO Sprint car series pays a lot more than any National Late model tour. Being of his caliber, not sure why one would want to race for less money in a class that he is unproven at.

                  I truly think the guy is just a dirt racer to the bone. Probably wants to try the late models to see how he does and how he likes them. His talent on the open wheel side is incredible. Can drive it on the edge but also is constantly working the track and running different lines even when not in traffic.

                      I just wonder. WHAT IF, he goes out and does win ? Chances, I'll put him at 50/50, but what if he does ? Everybody is going to say it was Rumley I'm sure. The guy is the best dirt racer out there right now. From millbridge speedway, in those caged karts, midgets, usac sprints, to outlaw sprint cars at knoxville. Besides being a d*m good driver, he adjusts instantly to the different types of dirt surfaces you find around the country. Hummmmm, what if ?

                        "Even over the OVER RATED chili bowl."

                        Anyone that thinks the chili bowl is overrated is simply ignorant or not paying attention.

                            I'd bet he just wants to jump in a late model a couple times before he goes back to NASCAR just to say he's done it.

                                I remember Billy Hicks coming to Pennsboro, that car was always the best looking car there.
