History

In November 2013 the formation of Larson Marks Racing, co-owned by Kyle Larson and Justin Marks, was announced. After the 2017 racing season, Larson took full ownership of the team, renaming it Kyle Larson Racing and hiring Paul Silva as general manager. They competed in the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series under the KLR eSports name for only 4 races in the 2020 season before Larson was suspended from iRacing after he used a racial slur during an unrelated iRacing event. In October 2020, it was announced that the Kyle Larson Racing sprint car team would be closing operations at the end of the 2020 racing season; Larson cited difficulties from the COVID-19 pandemic as one reason for the closure. The KLR eSports brand has not been used since.
