Lakeside Speedway Hosts FVP Outlaws at Lakeside, “Salute to the King” Tour June 7

Fans,
Fans,

Inside Line Promotions – KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Kansas City was known as a hot bed for sprint car racing a couple of decades ago.

Since then the biggest race for the area every year is the annual World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series event, which is slated for Saturday, June 7, this season for the FVP Outlaws at Lakeside.

There is also a bonus this season as the fast track hosts the “Salute to the King” tour for 20-time series champion Steve Kinser, who is in his final year of chasing the championship.

“We’ve had a lot of success there and I look forward to racing there,” he said. “It’s just a nice sized, big track. There’s a lot of good competition with the World of Outlaws and the locals.”

Kinser has recorded a series-best three feature victories during the eight World of Outlaws points races at Lakeside, including back-to-back triumphs in 2010-11. He was also victorious in 2001.

“When it gets real high on the top you can run the bottom,” he said. “It’s usually got one corner that has two grooves. Any time you get a track like that you can’t complain.”

Since Kinser’s last win, Sammy Swindell and Craig Dollansky each picked up a victory. Swindell also has three wins at Lakeside Speedway after claiming the inaugural non-points race in 1991 and the first points race in 1992.
