“Everyone looks forward to competing this week in the Knoxville
Nationals, which is the biggest race for Sprint cars,” said Kinser.
“It’s highly competitive and exciting. We’re thrilled to team up
with Arctic Cat, as we try to get back to victory lane.”
Kinser’s pursuit for a second Knoxville Nationals crown begins
tonight, on opening night of the 55th annual Knoxville Nationals at
Knoxville Raceway. The Bloomington, Indiana, native is one of more
than 100 drivers looking to make Saturday’s 24-car field.
In conjunction with its sponsorship, Arctic Cat today launched
the 2015 Knoxville Nationals Helmet Sweepstakes at
arcticcat11k.squarespace.com. The sweepstakes runs through the
Sprint World Finals on November 8, 2015, giving fans the chance to
win a specially designed Arctic Cat helmet. Kinser wore this helmet
during the Kings Royal weekend. He also will wear it this week at
Knoxville and at the season-ending World Finals in Charlotte. One
grand prize winner will be selected on or about November 9, 2015.
The team will notify the winner and coordinate delivery of the
Kraig Kinser/Arctic Cat 2015 Knoxville Nationals Helmet.
Commented Greg Williamson, Arctic Cat’s chief marketing officer:
“Fans of Sprint car racing are as passionate about winning and the
excitement of this sport as we are. Kraig is a proven champion,
which makes him a terrific partner for Arctic Cat. We are pleased
to offer fans a chance to win a specially designed,
high-performance racing helmet to commemorate our teamwork and
collaboration.”
This year’s Nationals race will be the 13th for Kinser, who
first competed in the event in 2001. Kinser became the
second-youngest driver at 21 to win the heralded race in August
2005. He and his father, Steve Kinser, are the only father-son duo
to win Sprint car racing’s most coveted trophy.
