Kyle Larson shares his outlook on his racing legacy
Kyle Larson was candid about the remaining chapters of his career and legacy in a recent interview with SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
Larson, known for his 23 Cup Series wins and the 2021 Championship win, shared his mental approach, mentioning the necessity of staying in the present rather than reflecting on his legacy. He said:
"I hadn't looked at the wins list since the other day. I mean, I don't know I feel like. I don't want to focus too much on it yet because I feel you're like I still have a lot of room to win a lot more races."
The No. 5 driver added:
"So, hopefully, I'm creeping up on that list even more throughout the next you know five or six years, and then we can really set your goals of where I want to end up."
Larson downplayed concerns about his legacy, saying:
"As of right now, I'm just trying to go in races and I'm not really worried about you know, the legacy part of it on my end, as I'm sitting here at 31 years old and in the middle of my career."
