Larson Lands Top Spot in 2020 STIDA Winged 410 Sprint Car Power Rankings!
Lonnie Wheatley, BROKEN ARROW, Okla. (December 23, 2020) – Coming off an historic dirt track racing season, it is little surprise that Elk Grove, CA, native Kyle Larson topped the 2020 edition of the STIDA Winged 410 Sprint Car Power Rankings.
Racking up in excess of $400,000 in 46 overall race wins alone, 32 of those came in the Winged 410 Sprint Car ranks to land Larson the number one ranking by 361 points over Brad Sweet.
Larson topped the win charts with both the World of Outlaws and All Star Circuit of Champions, posting a dozen WoO wins and 14 All Star triumphs along with another half-dozen in Central Pennsylvania including four en route to the Central PA Speedweek title.
Making his first appearance among the final STIDA Winged 410 Sprint Car Power Rankings, Larson relegated 2019’s top-ranked Brad Sweet to second in 2020.
Sweet picked off ten wins in 2020 as he raced to a second consecutive World of Outlaws championship and finished among the final top two in STIDA Winged 410 Power Rankings for the fourth year in a row.
Logan Schuchart recorded seven wins in 2020 to post his best final ranking of third with David Gravel among the top-five for the fifth year in a row in fourth. After reeling off a third consecutive All Star title, Aaron Reutzel rounded out the 2020 top five for his second top-five ranking in as many years.
Sheldon Haudenschild climbed a pair of positions to sixth with Donny Schatz in seventh. Posse rep Danny Dietrich is among the top-ten for the seventh year in a row in eighth with Brent Marks and Anthony Macri completing the top ten.
Along with Larson, Marks and Macri both broke into the top ten for the first time while Schatz ranks as the only driver to finish among the top ten in the STIDA Winged 410 Sprint Car Power Rankings each of the eight years since its inception in 2013.
