The only other time both titles were concurrently held by Americans was Jonathan Allard (Sprint) and Jerry Coons (Midget) during the 2010/11 winter season.

With Buddy Kofoid's win in Western Springs Speedway today, both of New Zealand's open wheel national championships currently are owned by American drivers as Joel Myers Jr. is the current Sprint titlist.

Kyle Larson has a +/- in his last three races of +46. This is a wide net to cast so entirely possible someone can prove us wrong - but went through the biggest 410 series out there - WoO, ASCoC, IRA, NARC, etc - and can find no bigger three consecutive race +/- total … ever.

We promise this isn’t a @KyleLarsonRacin stan account!. But MORE STATS. Tonight is the deepest any Front Row Challenge winner has started since we have starting position data available beginning in 2004. The furthest back a previous winner had started was 5th. Kyle started 13th.

Okay, here’s another fun new stat. Important caveat that many races prior to ‘01 are missing starting position information!. After Larson swept the Iron Man last night, this is the first *recorded* instance of a @WorldofOutlaws winner starting outside T10 in 2 consecutive races.

.@KyleLarsonRacin victory last night was the first time a @WorldofOutlaws driver has started 21st or worse and won since Donny Schatz won the 2013 Knoxville Nationals (21st starting position). The last time anyone came from deeper: Fred Rahmer - 5/14/2010 - Williams Grove (24th).

Starting positions are missing for many races from the early years, but this is only the fifth confirmed time - out of 3698 races in series history that a driver has started worse than 20th and won
