Kyle Larson's High Limit Racing announces return to Australian soil with a bump in the record-breaking payday

The Kyle Larson-owned High Limit Racing series has completed its three-day schedule at Perth Motorplex in Western Australia. The sprint car series not only hosted its first overseas schedule but became the highest-paying race in the nation's history.

The High Limit Racing series is also co-owned by Brad Sweet, Larson's brother-in-law and five-time World of Outlaws champion. The ace drivers ventured to the land down under and competed in their respective entries for three nights. Despite getting beaten by James McFadden on the first days of the schedule, the Hendrick Motorsports star had redemption as he clinched his first overseas victory in the finale.

As a result, the 32-year-old Larson bagged a handsome prize of AUD 100,000, deemed the biggest payday in Australian sprint car history. In a post on X, the 410 winged racing series announced its return to Perth next year and plans to push the current "richest payday" for the finale by AUD 10,000. Additionally, the A-mains for the preliminary nights will be worth AUD 15,000:

"𝗜𝗖𝗬𝗠𝗜: High Limit International will return to @PerthMotorplex next year! We’ll push the Australian Speedway record books further, offering a $𝟭𝟭𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬-to-win main event preceded by $𝟭𝟱,𝟬𝟬𝟬-to-win prelims at the world-class WAU facility."

Rick Hendrick driver Larson discussed his plans to grow the sprint car racing series earlier this month.

"Give the fans more racing": Kyle Larson on High Limit Racing expansion

During an interview with EPARTRADE's 5th Annual Race Industry Week, Kyle Larson opened up on the origins of the racing series and how Hall of Famer Tony Stewart lent a hand in boosting the sprint car series.

"A couple of years ago, we just did some midweek racing. I think we got 11 races in, and I think that really opened our eyes to how we could grow the sport a lot. Tony Stewart had reached out to us about wanting to move on from the ownership or series ownership side, so we saw a good opportunity to try to elevate the national scene even more than it already was," Kyle Larson said.

"We really wanted to allow more teams, more drivers, and more tracks to make money and also give the fans even more racing. From there, we went from 11 races to, I think, 61 races nationally – quite a big jump."

Larson will compete at the Tulsa Shootout from December 31 to January 4 with the NASCAR offseason in full swing,
