Inside Line Promotions – KOKOMO, Ind. – Steve Kinser leads the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series to Kokomo Speedway on Wednesday, June 4, in more than one way.

The winningest sprint car driver scored the inaugural Outlaws win at the bullring in 1978 and he has earned a series-best six feature victories at the track located approximately two hours from his hometown of Bloomington.

“My dad ran there every Sunday night for many years,” he said. “He was track champion and I don’t know how many races he won there.”

Kinser enters this year’s event on his “Salute to the King” tour as he is in his final season of competing for the World of Outlaws championship.

“All the Kinsers have ran pretty good there,” he said. “I have a lot of race fans there. It’s good to get back there and see them.”

While all of Kinser’s victories at Kokomo are special, one stands out.

“Me and my dad ran first and second during a World of Outlaws race, which was really a big deal,” he said. “He led until about three or four laps to go and I finally got by him. He led it all the way until right at the end and I got by him.”

The triumph more than 30 years ago was Kinser’s first of five World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series wins at Kokomo Speedway in the 1980s.
