Bubba Wallace Is Highly Impressed With Kyle Larson Over His Dirt Racing Skills and Compliments Him

On Saturday, Kyle Larson proved his mettle on the dirt surface, with a win. Bubba Wallace was thoroughly impressed with the performance. Larson, Chase Elliott, and Briscoe were participating in the Carolina Midget Showdown.

There were two events, and Kyle Larson took top honors in the second one. It is also worth mentioning that this race marked Chase Elliott‘s Midget Showdown debut and he put up a decent show. Other competitors included Alex Bowman, though Briscoe made it to the final showdown.

On Larson’s video, Wallace commented, “Damn!!!!! So badass!”

Larson grabbed pole position for the first event but ended up second behind Chase Briscoe. Meanwhile, he stormed to victory in the second and final event.

Kyle Larson will be a formidable opponent in the 2021 NASCAR season

Since this is a dirt race, the Carolina Midget Showdown will be perfect practice for the coming season. Since the NASCAR Cup Series drivers have to race on the Bristol dirt, the Showdown will help them get used to it.

Of course, tackling the dirt on the Bristol Motor Speedway in NASCAR machines will be a different story. However, all of the drivers will be up for the challenge.

Additionally, Kyle Larson may also have gotten a leg up on the competition. After he was fired in early 2020, he competed in a number of other races, including dirt ones. Obviously, this would have given him plenty of time to hone his craft.

Without a doubt, Larson is an exceptionally talented driver and will be a fierce rival. With his experience on the surface, he could be a favorite to win at the Bristol Motor Speedway dirt. To make matters even better, Larson is racing for the Hendrick Motorsports team for the coming season. HMS has been one of the most dominant teams in NASCAR, off late, and have a number of talented drivers.
