MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Kyle Larson, a winner in all three of NASCAR’s top series, will return to NASCAR Camping World Truck Series action March 27 at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway.
Larson, who is no stranger to racing on dirt, won at Eldora Speedway in the Truck Series in 2016. The Elk Grove, Calif. native will pilot the No. 44 Rich Mar Florist/CircleBDiecast.com Chevrolet Silverado.
“I really appreciate the opportunity given by Niece Motorsports,” said Larson. “I’m excited to get back into a truck at one of my favorite race tracks.”
The 28-year-old driver has built an extensive and impressive racing resume with more than 250 career race wins. Larson has won in every racing circuit he has competed in. Most notably, Larson has earned seven victories in the premier NASCAR Cup Series and won the prestigious Chili Bowl Midget Nationals in 2020 and ’21.
He also won the 2011 4-Crown Nationals at Eldora Speedway, winning in three types of USAC cars in a single night, only the second driver in history to accomplish the feat.
Larson won 46 races in four different types of dirt racing cars last season before returning to the NASCAR Cup Series with Hendrick Motorsports this season.
“Kyle is obviously one of the best drivers out there today,” said Niece Motorsports General Manager Cody Efaw. “His résumé on dirt speaks for itself. We are looking forward to him joining the organization at Bristol and contending for a win.”
The No. 44 Chevrolet will carry the Rich Mar Florist and CircleBDiecast.com colors under the lights at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Larson will be in action during this weekend’s Bristol Dirt Nationals, driving a dirt late model.
