Kyle Larson stole the pole for the Knoxville Nationals—biggest sprint car race around—but he’s likely skipping the main event to honor his NASCAR Cup Series commitment at Richmond. He knew this was a possibility when he signed on, and he’s totally cool with it. The only way he’d race? If severe weather forces NASCAR to reschedule. As driver for owner Paul Silva, Larson’s win already brought in $12K, and even starting last in the main event nets another $15K for the team. Crew chief Trevor Canales will start and park Larson’s car from the back if needed—a move they’ve pulled before. Larson’s absence won’t sting—he’s focused on helping his team cash in, and this was all planned from day one.
