Hendrick Motorsports’ Kyle Larson is one of the most versatile racers on the NASCAR grid. The 2021 Cup Series champion has won races in multiple disciplines in both dirt and asphalt over the years. His love for dirt racing is well known, and the NASCAR champion plans to retire from stock car racing in his prime to compete in dirt.
On Sunday, he ticked off another prestigious dirt race from his to-do list after winning the Wild West Shootout at Wild West Shootout at Vado Speedway Park. He won the event, defeating reigning World of Outlaws champion Bobby Pierce after he got flat tier later in the race. It was a morale-boosting victory for the champion drivers struggling the whole weekend.
