Kraig Kinser Finishes Seventh at Bloomington; Ironman 55 Postponed by Rain
Racing at his home track of Bloomington Speedway in Indiana, doesn’t add any extra pressure for Kraig Kinser. If anything, it helps him relax, as he has the chance to visit with countless family members and friends that he doesn’t get to see very often due to the extensive World of Outlaws schedule that keeps him on the road. The third-generation driver had the chance to race at Bloomington for the second consecutive year with the World of Outlaws on Friday, August 3, and he finished seventh to earn his seventh-career Top-10 finish at the quarter-mile bullring in eight starts.
