With the recent successes of Shane Van Gisbergen in NASCAR’s National Series, plus cameos from Brodie Kostecki, Will Brown, and Cameron Waters, Supercars and NASCAR have been closely linked over the last two seasons.

According to a report from Andrew van Leeuwen at SpeedCafe, the crossover between the two divisions may soon be reciprocated, as 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson eyes a Supercars start.

The Elk Grove, California-native recently made the trip to Australia to compete in the three-night High Limit International event at Perth Motorplex, where he captured the $100,000-to-win prize.

Shortly after capturing the victory, Larson revealed to Speedcafe that very early talks about running Adelaide are underway.

“It’s definitely on the radar,” said Larson to Speedcafe. “Nothing is set in stone yet. There’s talks kind of starting but still a lot to work through. I for sure want to get there and run the Supercar, but more than anything I want to get there and run the Sprintcar because just the atmosphere, racing in the city is really cool.”

“I got to experience that the last couple of years with Chicago in NASCAR, and I just picture us racing a Sprintcar in Chicago, and that’s kind of what Adelaide is. I really, really want to get to that one and then come back here to Perth. I’d like to do a couple of trips to Australia next year and to get to race a Supercar and knock that off the bucket list would be pretty neat.”

As far as expectations for competing in Supercars, Larson is pretty modest, since Shane Van Gisbergen came to Chicago — NASCAR’s first street race — and won on debut.

“I like trying to learn things, quickly,” he added. “Obviously I would not expect to run very good because Shane van Gisbergen, he came in [to NASCAR] and kicked all of our buts. So I know these Australian racers and Supercars drivers are extremely good. So I would not be surprised to run last. But just being part of the experience would be a lot of fun for me.”
