I was told to watch this kid 2 years ago,Jim said he got it. I watched and don't be surprised to see the 9team back in victory lane. Good Luck Kyle

Kyle is one of the most talented kids that I know who drives a midget. He's been a great mentor to me and many other young drivers. Good luck to Kyle! He deserves this chance.

Wonder how much that cost?

I am sure the only thing Kyle is taking to California is his helmet bag and talent. Larry

Hey Chasetherace, Kyle is a very talented driver what makes you think he didn't get the ride because of his talent. How about just saying congrats and keep this a positive thing for a kid that has talent and deserve the opportunity.

I'm sure chasetherace isn't questioning his galant or if he deserves the rise at all but he is kinda speaking the truth when he says "how much money did that coat him" because no matter how good you are or how deserving you are of a great ride most great rides are not available without a lot of coin. Either way congrats to Kyle on his opportunity!

Agreed most if not all the good rides have to be bought now. That is one of the saddest parts of our sport now.

I do know the Hamilton's and know that while Kyle's dad does own a business, I know that they have work hard for what they have and are not wealthy by any means.

I'm sure there may be some sponsorship from Curtis Motors along with any other supporters that Kyle already has for his family owned car.

I'm very excited to see what Kyle can do in this car and hoping this is the next step for Kyle to become a future star in our sport.

They don't take that car out of the garage until the check clears these days. That goes for Dave Darland right down to rookies like Kyle Hamilton

I guess " how much did that cost?" is a natural question when other top rides are being rented. But it would be nice if people could just congratulate a multiple championship winning driver from the Focus cars and let it go at that. He has wins in the full midgets and has shown a lot of talent.

Kyle is a good driver from a fine family..very nice people. The family including Kyle work hard at Curtis Motor Sales on West Washington in Indy. A good place to get a used car. http://www.curtismotorsales.com/

Congrats to Kyle and team.

Going rate is $10k from a reliable source for hauler to leave the shop to go racing. I'm assuming its for turkey night? With that said it's good for both parties, being in Steve Lewis' backyard. He loves turkey night and i'm sure he hated not having his cars there last year. And for Kyle he is a great talent and this will be a great opportunity for the kid.

10k sounds like a lot but if the family was to head out west and run there own car and race you can do the math and it would cost every bit of 10k. So why not do it. Makes sense to me!

Good luck Kyle & 9 Racing!

I'm not doubting Kyle's ability to drive or his natural talent, its obvious he can drive the hell out of a race car. Actually, I see Kyle often, I talked to him for about 5 minutes about an hour before I posted that reply. Everyone wants to congratulate him on this ride, and I do to, its just a shame now that even kids with natural talent have to buy rides.
