Kyle Larsons Barnstorming includes commuting between 3 tracks for Indycar and Nascar
Kyle Larson’s Barnstorming begins the weekend when he made an effort between three racetracks in two National Motorsports series. Larson prays to become the fifth driver to complete the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day. To achieve the achievement, Larson misses Larshes on Friday and Saturday in Northern Wilkesboro, North Carolina, Larson in Northern Wilkesboro, North Carolina, to focus on Indy 500 practice and qualify at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. After running at an Indianapolis Airport on Sunday for a flight to Northern Wilde Boro Speedway in the North Carolina, where he will chase the best for $ 1 million in the Northern All-Star race against the Cup series, Larson will try to qualify for the 33 for “The Greatest Spectacle” on Sunday. Indycar. Larson will return to Indy for Monday practice, spending Tuesday in New York on a media tour and bouncing between Indy and Charlotte Motor Speedway three times from Friday to Sunday before the Coca-Cola 600. This is a scary journey, but Larson is ready for the Harried travel plan. The Hendrick Motorsports star has pushed a few dozen land races around its annual NASCAR schedule of 38 Cup series over the past decade. “Yes, I mean honestly, it just feels for me for another week,” Larson said. “If there’s anything, it’s a little easier than a week than normal.” This is partly because Indy 500 qualifications will end an hour later this year, so Larson will not be able to run for the pole position in North Wildeboro, even if he goes to the final round of six drivers. He is already on his way to North Wildeboro as a favorite, along with defensive series Joey Logano, who led 199 of 200 rounds to win last year’s Nascar All-Star race. Larson led 145 rounds to win the 2023 All-Star Race debut in North Wildeboro. After winning the runaway, Nascar crossed this year’s race by adding 50 rounds and a random warning flag that will set up the field. The format changes do not hold Larson, who has won three of the past six all-Star races, nor the lack of track time. He missed the exercise and qualified for last year’s All-Star race and then drove from the last to fourth on the recently called track. “I think you can plug in one of us without exercise, and against round 10 you will be quick,” he said. ‘Last year was probably more a disadvantage because I didn’t make a single shot on the surface, but we could move right off the bat. So, hopefully we will have the opportunity to win like last year. ‘ Justin Allgaier will practice and qualify Larson’s number 5 Chevrolet, but the team will skip Saturday’s 75-round heat races setting the series for Sunday’s main event, as Larson will start using a replacement driver on Friday. Larson, who has a dominant victory on Kansas Speedway on May 11, leads the scoring with three wins-which has even more confidence to deal with his lifestyle. “There are one or two weekends every year where it is late evenings or it comes close to a land race, because exercise and qualifying were later done in Nascar,” Larson said. “This week and next week I feel pretty normal for myself.” But what he’s trying to do is far from normal. He crashed on Friday – after being destroyed in a Test at Indy last month – while trying to quickly touch with the extra horsepower he qualifies for Indy 500. “Obviously, it’s tricky. I spun, ‘Larson said after leaving the Indy Care Center. “I don’t know. So a little there a little there, but I think we’re doing well. I tend to get things over quickly. I know I was spun, but my balance felt very close to being good. ‘ Last year, his attempt at the performance known as “The Double” was thrown because the Indy 500 four hours was delayed by rain, which prevented him from running in a rain -shortened event on Charlotte Motor Speedway. “It’s something that doesn’t have many people the opportunity to do, and it’s a challenging day of racing,” he said. “I like the challenge. I looked up at many of the guys who did it, and you want to add your name to the record label in some way. Hopefully things are going well, and we can “complete the double” and live a dream, but also try to do a good job with it. ” Harrison Burton made his all-Star-Rend debut on Sunday, although he last chased the cup series in the 2024 season. After three years in the no. 21 Ford, Burton lost his ride with Wood Brothers Racing and fell to the Xfinity series. But he guaranteed a place in the All-Star race as a result of his victory at Daytona International Speedway in August in August, so Rick True Racing Burton rented to drive his number 51 Ford in North Wildeboro in a one-time agreement. “You never know if an opportunity will come and an automatic bid in the All-Star race is such a big deal for me,” Burton said. ‘Especially how my story went with the ups and downs. This is such a pleasant moment for me. I really wanted to make this agreement work out, and I’m very glad it did. ‘ The winner of the All-Star race has won the competition for the past five years (Chase Elliott in 2020, Larson in ’21, Logano last year), which adds another layer to the prestige of the race. The Select Field has 23 drivers (20 qualified with victories, two transfers of a warm -up race and the final lock is a winner of the fan). “Just being part of the race against some of the biggest names in the series is great and important,” said Austin Cindric, Team Penke, who missed last year’s main event. “It’s not a point run, but there’s a lot of cash on the line and definitely a cute title to work with.” ___
