Oh and he holds his own when he runs with the WOO too! 24th to 12th, 21st to 9th, and a 3rd this year in CA. i wish i was 19 and sucked that bad!
Wait a minute, are people on IOW saying the WOO are better drivers than non-wing? sure sounds like it!

Yes , I do think the WOO boys are better. You can take the wing off of the WOO boys and they will still run upfront. I personally have seen Steve Kinser win a non wing & wing show in the same day. I say the "Kid " will be a great one , look who we are comparing him to.
You're missing hoosierdaddy's point. Point is NO WoO driver (you can pick whoever you think is best now) can win on pavement (plus set quick time in sprints and SC cars on pavement) and win Belleville out of the box like he has. ZERO percent chance that happens. No way, no how, no chance. Point is NOT that a driver can take the wing off and put it back on driving the same car and be good. Lot of guys can do that. I don't want to hear the, Haud won the biggest non-wing race ever, card either. Haud is a sprint car driver, not a wing sprint car driver. Always has been and always will be. He just happens to have done more of one than the other.
Bottom line, no WoO driver could do what Larson has done this year on pavement and in the midgets. That's what separates it. Not just talking taking the wing off and on, more to it. Not trying to get into a pissing match, just pointing out facts.
