It was prostate cancer surgery. Supposedly to have prostate removed. Seen that earlier today around noon.

He might be a bit off but dirt racing in general has more eyes on it now maybe more than ever in part and I'm sure many will agree mostly due to this guy.
The attention he has brought to dirt racing and with talents like Larson have be good in many aspects.
Whether you like him or not he brought eyeballs to this sport.
In my book each discipline in dirt racing has a few G.O.A.T.S.
In Dirt Late Model racing he is without a doubt one of those.
If he is in the pits the racing itself and the quality of competition is just that much better.
Will probably never be another like him anytime soon.
Even if he wasn't at a race, I was attending I always have one eye on what he is doing just because of the talent behind the wheel and his wealth of knowledge.

So sorry for Scott. Been a touch stretch for him. What's he's accomplished in dirt late model history will go down in history. Prayers for recovery.
