Kyle Larson began what will become a busy month of May on a small dirt track nestled in a crook of the Missouri River, where he started outside of the top 10 in his sprint car Friday night and managed to climb to third place by the finish.

Kyle Larson is trying to join Tony Stewart as the only drivers ever to complete “the double,” finishing every lap of the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600.

Indeed, Larson will face a week of practice at Indianapolis during the week of May 14, qualifying on May 18-19, competing in NASCAR’s All-Star race in North Wilkesboro, N.C. on the night of May 19 before returning to Indianapolis for more practice sessions leading to the race.
