Wow, looks like the guy who's never done anything just won the Chili Bowl.   Imagine that...

You beat me to the sarcasm, shame on me.

So is this Larson guy worthy of the accolades yet?

Anyone know?, cause i don't wanna "google" it, I'd rather "hosehead" it

What the total purse is for the Chili Bowl and what the winner gets?

Do they actually pay back to last place in the O main?

Any idea what it costs to put the event on as far as building rent and track build etc?

Thanks in advance.

Best part was him in victory lane saying sorry chip but this is bigger than me winning the Daytona 500. What surprised me is the chassis came from down under country. So I wonder, will he be jumping in his car and doing some more midget racing or will it sit until next year for another shot at a golden driller  ?

You didn't let us down-----great job of congratulating and needling at the same time!  

 

By the way, he could have continued to finish 2nd in the Chilibowl and Knoxville Nationals, and it wouldn't have changed my thoughts on his talent one bit.  He's the best pure racer in the country right now.  Period.

Wow so apparently you think great drivers should win big events right away. I guess that Donny Schatz guy is overrated since it took him 10yrs to win the Knoxville Nationals. That Dale Earnhardt guy was just bad since it took him 20 tries to win the Daytona 500. Mark Martin, Rusty Wallace, and Tony Stewart must be no bodies since they never won a 500. By your standards, drivers like Trevor Bayne are probably the best of all time

Nobody here ever called him "the best driver of all time"

But you won't even admit he's one of the best driving today

What is your problem? Jealous, or just enjoy babbling BS?

Good point, and if I remember correctly didn't Schatz finish 2nd four or five times in a row at Knoxville before he finally won the first one?

Shut up Chaz. Now tell us, what have you won over the past ten years? NOTHING. Now, get back to making your next shitty YouTube video that will be watched by 7 people & living in your distorted reality where you think someone actually likes you & takes your stupid opinions seriously.

He's still pissed that Karsyn Elledge didn't answer his love letter. He hasn't really gotten over it yet. Love bites.

The King Chassis is built by Justin Insley an ex midget racer. Just like John Godfrey a follow Kiwi who founded Stealth and Spike Chassis, Kiwis have a long history of building Chill Bowl winning chassis. 

 

The King Chassis is built in the Insleys family shed. 

 

Kyle raced a King Chassis in his recent New Zealand trip with his car owner, switching from a Bullet by Spike to a King Chassis. 

 

Justin Insley was in victory lane with Kyle and the KLR team. 

 

I would not be surprised if KLR becomes the US distributor of King Chassis.

That was a big win on many different levels, if you don't see it, you're an idiot. And no, I'm not a Larson FanBoy.

I believe it was about 4-5. I remember him posting something a few years ago of the first car he drove in the event & said he finished 6ish in either the D or E main. Then to finish second so many times & win finally win it. 

It will be interesting to watch Larson at the Nationals this year. After failing to even make the A main in his qualifying day, he will be a man on a mission

  Hey mate, I've been following this story as best I could since before the Bowl, and no doubt this Chili Bowl win will be a big BOOM for King Chassis. Do you know approximately how many King Chassis are run down under and how long they've been making them?  Does King also make sprint car chassis? Pickens runs them too if I remember right.

Why do you Kiwis call my Aussie friends convicts?  The short version.


Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.

I think you'll find that Carson Macedo, who has smashed everyone this season at Sydney's Valvoline Raceway in a midget, is running a King chassis as well. That is of course in between a stellar run in Sean Dyson's sprintcar. 

Dyson owns both cars and it's no coincidence that he is also providing a sprintcar for Kyle Larson at Warrnambool's Grand Annual Classic this coming weekend. I'd say Kyle will be on that plane to Melbourne right about now. 

One could readily assume that they could discuss King chassis midgets while they are all together .....

PS.  Australia's population in the early 1800's was significantly increased by the British government of the time, who decided that their country had too many criminals in its jails.  Someone figured out that if they loaded up the ships headed for Australia with convicts, then they could kill two birds with one stone. Get rid of the British problem and supplement the Oz population with the same product.

But of course the state of South Australia refused to accept any convict stock.  So we "croweaters" are pure bloods ....

 I know the history of how and why, I also heard that though it's not talked about much, so many convicts made their way to South Australia that there was a massive food shortage. South Australia had so many convicts and with the food so low, they ate crow. Hence the name "crow eaters" for those in the south.... Bobs your uncle.

 Yep, they very well could be having that conversation on the flight over, that's why I was wondering how big their shop really is, and what besides the Miget chassis they produce. We were flooded with commercials all week with race-related products, and a King Chassis owned by Kyle's Larson as the driver and now a Chili Bowl win will sell it.
