by Mike O’Leary

March 1, 2006 - Old Man Winter is on the way out the door and in a matter of weeks the sprint car season will kick-off again.  The promoters of the King of Indiana Sprint Series (KISS) have been looking forward to the coming summer just as much as the fans.  Coming into its seventh year, KISS has grown to symbolize the thrilling, wheel-to-wheel competition that Indiana is famous for.  Soon it will be time to once again ask, “Who Wants To Be King?”

SCHEDULE.  The first four KISS races are packed into three breathtaking weekends in May.  KISS will open at the award winning I-69 Speedway in Gas City, on Friday, May 12.  The following Friday, May 19, the KISS racers will take the green on the wicked fast Bloomington Speedway quarter mile.  The next evening, Saturday, May 20, they face off at Putnamville’s Lincoln Park SpeedwayLawrenceburg Speedway hosts the KISS racers on Memorial Day weekend, Saturday, May 27.  After a couple weeks to catch their breath, the KISS racers will start their final leg with a big Sunday show at Kokomo Speedway on June 18th.  The title battle will begin to come into sharp focus at Paragon Speedway on Saturday, June 24.  Then racers will kick off their Independence Day weekend with the KISS grand finale at the Terre Haute Action Track and the crowning of a new (or repeat) King of Indiana Sprints on July 1.
