INDIANAPOLIS – Kyle Larson is making his return to the USAC Silver Crown Series during Sunday’s 65th running of the Hoosier Hundred at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

Larson headlines a stacked entry list that includes seven USAC National champions, 13 Silver Crown winners, a six-time All Star Sprint Car champion and much more.

Larson has entered with Sean Michael Motorsports for his first Silver Crown appearance since the 2012 season.  His lone Hoosier Hundred start came in 2011, a 12th place finish.  He’s joined by defending Hoosier Hundred winner and two-time USAC National champion, Tyler Courtney, plus four-time Hoosier Hundred winner and five-time series champ Kody Swanson.

Also in the mix are USAC National champions who are seeking a first Hoosier Hundred win: two-time USAC National champ Chris Windom, 2014 & 2016 USAC AMSOIL National Sprint champ Brady Bacon, 2019 Sprint champion C.J. Leary, 1989 USAC NOS Energy Drink National Midget king Russ Gamester and series rookie Logan Seavey, the 2018 USAC Midget champion.

A batch of drivers who’ve won in the USAC Silver Crown division, but are still eying that first Hoosier Hundred triumph include the likes of Aaron Pierce, John Heydenreich, David Byrne, Shane Cockrum, Justin Grant and Selinsgrove Silver Crown season opening winner, Shane Cottle.

Six-time All Star Circuit of Champions driving champion Chad Kemenah returns for a second Hoosier Hundred start while 27-time USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car feature winner and 2019 Hoosier Hundred pole sitter Kevin Thomas Jr. remains on the hunt for his first USAC Silver Crown victory.

The 2019 edition of the Hoosier Hundred was originally going to be the last at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Local officials planned to turn the track into an all-weather surface made of crushed limestone.

However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic those plans have been put on hold, opening the door for the unexpected return of the Hoosier Hundred.
