Kyle Larson is open to the possibility of participating in future Indianapolis 500s depending on how his debut goes for this year’s edition.

A 31-year-old California native, Larson is learning the nuances of an Indy car through the process of his maiden attempt to make the field of 33 for the 108th Running of the Indianapolis 500. Thus far, though, Larson has only logged a combined 85 laps – with a best of 225.245mph — due to rain hampering most of this week’s practices.

But it's hard when you're a full-time Cup Series driver to do other opportunities or get to experience other things. “The IndyCar schedule kind of overlaps with NASCAR, and other forms of motorsports do as well. As long as I'm a full-time guy, I don't think there's a whole lot that I can do, but there's definitely stuff that I’d like to do in the future.
