Tony Stewart Racing’s Kraig Kinser Continues Hunting for World of Outlaws Victories in J.D. Byrider Maxim

When you circle dirt tracks on a nightly basis, you are bound to get a little dirty. World of Outlaws (WoO) star Kraig Kinser has had his fair share of mud slung his way since getting behind the wheel of a Sprint car as a teenager. The slinging continues this week with three nights of action, including stops at 34 Raceway in Burlington, Iowa, Charter Raceway Park in Beaver Dam, Wis., and Cedar Lake Speedway in Somerset, Wis. As he continues to chase his first World of Outlaws win of the 2009 campaign.

Kinser returns to action behind the wheel of TSR’s No. 20 Bass Pro Shops/Chevy/J.D. Byrider Maxim Wednesday night at 34 Raceway. The 24-year-old driver aims to build on a solid ending to June, which included three consecutive top-four finishes and five top-nine runs in his last six starts.

On Saturday night, Kinser will return to Charter Raceway Park in central Wisconsin. The program will be his sixth night racing at the high-banked 1/3-mile dirt oval. The week concludes with the Outlaws’ annual July stop in northwest Wisconsin at Cedar Lake Speedway. Kinser has made four previous trips to the 3/8-mile facility. He scored his best career finish the first night he raced there in July 2003.

After the first 33 WoO races of 2009, Kinser has eight top-five finishes and 16 top-10s. He currently ranks ninth in the WoO Sprint Series Championship standings with 4,222 points.

Race fans unable to attend this weekend’s races can catch all of the action on DIRTVision.com, including updated results from each night of racing, as well as a chat room to interact with other race fans.
