On Thursday night, at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tennessee, Kyle Larson will host a number of big name dirt late model drivers as well as NASCAR stars in the second edition of the Kyle Larson FloRacing Late Model Challenge.

Larson started the race in 2022 with goals to produce a product similar to the Prelude to the Dream which used to run before the late model crown jewel event at Eldora. The race was made out of NASCAR drivers that raced late model teams’ backup cars for night leading into the weekend.

Last year, just one NASCAR driver in William Byron joined Larson to race in the event, and the race still sold out the stands and set the record for FloSports’ most-watched, single-day event.

This time around, both Kyle Busch and Chase Briscoe are rolling in to take on Larson and a slew of late model stars.

Jonathan Davenport, who is racing in both the NASCAR Cup and Truck Series this weekend will be participating, as well as defending race winner Mike Marlar, Brandon Overton, Chris Madden and Jimmy Owens.

The action is set to kick off with hot laps at 6:30 p.m. ET and can be seen live on FloRacing.
