Kyle Larson recovers from spin to win Homestead Truck race in stunning comeback

Kyle Larson took a very unconventional path to the Friday night's NASCAR Truck Series win at Homestead-Miami Speedway, causing the final caution before charging through the field to ultimately win the race. Already a winner at the 1.5-miler in both the Cup and Xfinity Series, he was hoping to add a Truck victory to the list this evening as he pursues an entire weekend sweep.

"Pretty unbelievable from my seat," Larson told FOX Sports after his 'spin-to-win.' "I wasn't exactly sure if I could get back up there. Didn't have the restart that I wanted. Kind of took a little bit too long to start picking them off and just got ripping the wall at both ends. I think it was really paying dividends in (Turn) 1 and 2 for me and staying wound up. I caught some of the guys that were doing just good enough up there where I couldn't get by them and bogged my momentum down. But got clear of them, then I'm not sure what happened to the #11 [Heim, whose truck kept shutting off at random]  but that worked out in our favor for sure. I don't think I would have gotten to him. I would have gotten to second, probably, but it would have been tough to get to him. That last run was a lot of fun."
