Kyle Larson shares three-word reaction to daughter Audrey’s Box Stock victory

NASCAR champion Kyle Larson was at this year’s beginner box stock at Red Bluff Outlaws, watching his daughter Audrey hold off rival Keaton Clark and bring home another dominant victory. The Hendrick Motorsports ace couldn’t have been prouder.

Audrey, who turned 7 in May 2025, bagged her maiden career triumph at Millbridge Speedway earlier this year. Larson, too, started racing at a very young age, somewhat like Audrey. Safe to say that racing runs in the family.

However, Larson never won the beginner box stock at Red Bluff. Recently, on the High Limit Room podcast, the Chevy star reflected on the same.

“She has already done something I've not ever been able to do is win a Beginner Box stock race at Red Bluff...so she's off to a better start than me,” Kyle Larson said of his daughter. “That was really cool. Glad I was able to be there.”

FloRacing on X (formerly Twitter) posted it as well, only to be re-shared by Larson shortly after. Captioning it, the speedster wrote,

“That’s my girl!”

Kyle Larson just wrapped up his fifth full season in the NASCAR Cup Series, driving the No. 5 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. He will be driving a new car next year as Chevrolet has reportedly updated the Camaro ZL1 body for the 2026 season.

The regular points season starts with the 58th running of the Daytona 500. Notably, William Byron is the only driver from the Hendrick Motorsports camp who has won the 500-mile crown jewel event.

Kyle Larson lauds NASCAR’s Driver Ambassador Program for “making an impact” on the sport

Ahead of the 2025 season, NASCAR brought about a new Driver Ambassador Program, which would pay drivers to promote the sport. Modelled after a now-defunct PGA Tour program, the DAP program has concluded its first season with successful results.

Kyle Larson appreciated how the program got more Cup Series drivers involved. In a recent interview, Larson said,

“I would say the NASCAR’s new DAP program that you mentioned was really cool this year. It got us all out doing way more things than we ever would have. Because we actually felt like we were making an impact on the sport.” “We got to do a lot of fun things, going to cool sporting events, getting on shows and meeting different celebrities and just being out in the public eye a lot more,” he added.

Next up for Kyle Larson is the Cook Out Clash at Winston-Salem’s Bowman Gray Stadium on February 1, 2026. However, the first points race of the season will be held on February 15 at the iconic Daytona International Speedway.

Fans can watch the race live on FOX Sports starting at 2:30 pm ET, or listen to exclusive in-race updates on MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
