Larry Krauss is one of the true Texas racers. I don't believe I've ever met anyone that had a single thing negative to say about Larry.

 

Here's hoping he's still got a few laps left in there somewhere.

Larry kraus is a type of racer you can always count on for a smile .you can always ask him for help Larry is a friend to every person who knows him and who has not yet met him .Larry knows no strangers .we conpeted against larry for years and injoyed every lap .i think we may have beat him once or twice .only when he broke .. which was.nt often. Larry is a ladys man .id say he kissed hugged more women and children than richard petty has signed autographs. well close .if you have never met larry .you have missed out dearly .when i think of all the racer.s i admire the most .Larry kraus .is number one .

Oldtimer,

 

your right, My grandpa(larry) was an awesome man. when he was still able to go to the track, we'd be there 5 minutes, and hes already made a new friend, and 10 minutes hes off doing something and we can't find him, if it is one thing he loves to do is make new friends and keep in touch with those friends.

Glad to hear Pops is doing better, Levi.

 

One thing I always noted about Larry, To him a stranger was a friend he had not yet met.

 

Keep us posted, and have a great New Year.

Hey Levi,

We are sorry to hear about your Grandpa. We didn't know him on a personal level, but knowing you and your dad, your Grandpa is a great man. He has bred some fine Krauss men! He will be in our prayers, as will you and your family!
