Kyle Larson talks High Limit vs World of Outlaws showdown
Shane Walters
2024 is set to be a big year for dirt sprint car racing with two national series
Kyle Larson is a co-owner of High Limit Racing. For 2024, the series will expand drastically and now we have two national dirt sprint car series.
In the off-season, High Limit Racing acquired Tony Stewart’s ASCoC. The High Limit Racing tour is going national with 60 dates at 36 tracks across 19 states.
Additionally, the series has introduced a charter system. At the end of the 2024 season, five charters will be issued. Five more will be issued after the 2025 season. For 2026, the ten charter teams will share 50% of the streaming revenue.
“I’m on the High Limit side so I’m going to say it’s going to be much better than where we currently sat a few months ago,” Larson told Flo Racing of dirt sprint car racing.
“I think the fans that voiced their displeasure about two national series, I think just don’t understand the big picture. Also, our charter system.”
“Why would race fans not want a team owner to be able to make money with his race team. That’s a crazy way to think negatively about what we’re trying to do.”
“Excited to prove to people that we are good. And, what the Outlaws do going forward. Because I’m sure they’ll have to change their business model a little bit to continue to be the premier series, like they are.”
“It’s fun to be a part of it.”
“We’ve learned a lot from the late model side. We’ve got a close relationship with Rick Schwallie, who’s an incredible, smart, humble human being. A great person to have on our side, just to bounce ideas off of.”
“We listen to him about what’s worked and what hasn’t worked. Having us to be able to work together, is big. In my opinion, Lucas Oil is definitely the top series of late models.”
“Excited to see how the sport grows. Because I know it will grow. Over time, the fans will appreciate what we’re doing.”
