What's next now that Kyle Larson is reinstated to NASCAR?

The dirt cup race should be fought out between larson, bell, red(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word), and briscoe I would assume.

Do you mean Larson's head? He has taken multiple spills, just watch his wreck at Eldora a few years ago...The guy likes riding on the edge and hopefully he keeps that mentality in better equipment...I would rather see him race dirt but I get it, to most of the country NASCAR is the cream of the crop (I don't agree but we all know more about the backside of the business than the average person).

I took it as he was talking about Mr. H.

If Larson had $550,000 in winnings as a previous post stated and has to split even 50% with his car owner Paul Silva, that puts him at $275,000 (give or take exact winning totals and share percentage). According to the article below from a few year ago, NASCAR drivers make pennies to the dollar on t-shirt sales, while the top dirt drivers can make over six figures a year. What are the odds Larson made as much, or more in t-shirt sales than he did in his share of winnings?Example: If true (previous post above) that 6,000 shirts were sold at Port Royal (6,000 × $25 = $150,000).https://www.google.com/amp/s/nascar....r-drivers/amp/

I’m sure Larson will be like other Hendrick drivers and he will invest with Rick and turn millions into 100’s of millions.

With his base, which is probably 1 to 1.5 million, sponsor appearance dollars, if there's a sponsor. Incentives from HMS, tee shirt sales. I say he makes 2 million easily.

Let him have 1 race where he gets banged up in a dirt car. You watch how fast that will be over. A couple close calls and if it gets in his head he won't be the same.

That's it.

The sprint car he drove is owned by Paul Silva, not Kyle. He owns a sprint car team, but the drivers name escapes me, at the moment.

I will give him some cred for running his own stuff.

They sold 6,000 late model shirts at port royal.

considering most of his wins were in his own equipment, I'd guess it would be a little better than that.

No wins were in his own equipment. I've heard most sprint car drivers get 50%

I'm not sure what operational costs are for sprint cars. Most drivers are way better off collecting a percentage.

[Highside Hustler25]

Wonder how much of that money he actually pocketed? 30%?
