Off Topic….. Kyle Larson - Is this guy the 2nd coming of AJ Foyt?

[Senroc-Systems]

I had watched him back in the day run LM a few times but he didn't do anything that was impressive. . .

Are you serious? Jack Hewitt won all 4 classes at the 4 Crown Nationals at Eldora! Late Model included!

Terry.... With all due respect, To be considered in the same breath as AJ Foyt, or Mario Andretti he must win the Daytona 500 and Indianapolis 500. Period. Young Money has a long way to go in NASCAR just to be the best. NASCAR is the only place he's ever been Champion... He'll never be Steve Kinser there. He's won a couple big races in the LM but will never be Billy Moyer, Scott Bloomquist or Jonathan Davenport.... The Kid is is absolutely versatile. That's not in doubt. In that category, he sits at that table. The 🐐 GOAT? Race Car Driver... He's got some really steep Hurdles to climb! JMO! Totally respect yours!

Who is the GOAT ? We all have opinions, most of these names we toss out there all had there time in the spotlight. But, what really qualifies one to be called GOAT.

Versatility has to be the #1 reasonning even to be considered. The guys like foyt, gurney, Andretti plus others could all be included in that debate. Today, kyle larson is that driver. He has shown he can adjust to anything he drives. Let's remember Kyle, with his crazy schedule, shows up with helmet in hand and delivers. He takes what the car gives him and in many cases brings it home with the win.

His high limit sprint car races has proven that. He is going to racetracks that he has never seen before. Paul Silva sets the car up and once Kyle straps, remember he shows up with helmet in hand, he finds speed almost immediately and that no matter what you may think is impressive. It's also why Kevin Rumley is content running the schedule that permits Kyle to race his car. He knows that no matter what setup he puts under the car larson finds almost immediately were to run the car to be fast.

Kyle Larson is still young, we're his career takes him only time will tell. His son is now racing, that may play a roll in the direction he takes.

Who is A.j Foyt?

Dang, you must be young.

[Mopar DLM]

"Who is A.J. Foyt" Please tell me that was just your Jeopardy version of an answer.

I guess I forgot that Tony Stewart is the GOAT ? ?

The kid is a racecar driver. You have a wide selection of racecars to use to fill in the blank on type of racecar. I suspect that Larson can drive about any type you select. And oh, by the way, using Daytona NASCAR as a gauge is a joke. All one does there is steer the car. Geez, recall even Michael Waltrip has won there!

You know your the goat when dod has you ranked in their top 20 and you haven't even set in a late model in over 2 months. He's obviously fast even when he's sitting home in his recliner watching tv.

They desperately need some dudes who understand how a sports ranking poll should work.

I hope everyone is watching the DIRT series on FLO. I already knew Larson was the best driver in the history of racing in this country. But this show is further confirmation. None of those old school guys from 40 or 50 years ago are even close.

That pretty well sums it up. BTW, Mario said he is.
