MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series star Kyle Larson confirmed via social media Wednesday evening that he will return to the Keystone State for two races during the annual PA Speedweek series of sprint car events.

Larson will jump behind the wheel of the No. 57 BRANDT Professional Agriculture/Finley Farms/Priority Aviation machine he has wheeled for team owner Paul Silva over the past several years, as he seeks to add to his success from last summer’s Speedweek activities.

After racing at Chicagoland Speedway this weekend, Larson will visit Lincoln Speedway on Monday, July 2 to race the first half of his weekday double before also heading to Grandview Speedway on Tuesday, July 3 to compete as well.

The news first broke via the official Twitter account for Kyle Larson Racing, the sprint car team that Larson owns which competes on the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series trail with driver Shane Stewart.

The Elk Grove, Calif., driver won three times in four starts during the 2017 edition of PA Speedweek, part of a summer hot streak where he won six consecutive sprint car events between June 13 and July 4.

Larson was victorious at Path Valley Speedway, Lincoln Speedway and Grandview Speedway before being stopped by veteran Lance Dewease at Maryland’s Hagerstown Speedway last year.

Now, the five-time Cup Series winner – who drives Chip Ganassi Racing’s No. 42 Chevrolet and currently ranks ninth in points with 16 of 36 races complete – will be back for another go at glory against the best that the PA Posse has to offer.

The news comes on the heels of a recent social media exchange where Larson confirmed he’d like to run full-time with the World of Outlaws by the time he’s 40, which drew the ire of some of his fanbase on the NASCAR side.

Larson expressed prior to the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway that his continued discussion about and racing in sprint cars comes from a desire to bolster both forms of racing.

“I wouldn’t be racing where I am if I didn’t love NASCAR racing,” noted Larson. “I enjoy sprint cars and I feel like I talk about sprint cars a lot just to open people’s eyes to that style of racing because it’s a great form of racing — and so is NASCAR.”

“I have multiple fans come up to me each and every night (at a dirt track) and they are like, ‘Man, guys like you and (Christopher) Bell you are the reason why I’m watching NASCAR again,’” he added. “That makes me feel really special. It makes me feel like I’m having an impact when I am going to race that stuff and when I’m racing here in NASCAR.”
