2011 KISS Schedule Set

January 13, 2011 – With most of the Hoosier state resembling a frigid winter wonderland, promoters of the King of Indiana Sprint Series are pleased to announce that the opening round of the 2011 KISS campaign is only 112 days away.

This year's KISS program will be competed on six of the most challenging dirt ovals in the country, each an integral part of the series for the past three seasons. However, this year, the sequence of the races has changed. The curtain will lift at Bloomington Speedway on Friday, May 6. A week later, Gas City/I-69 Speedway hosts the second round, on Friday, May 13. The next weekend, Kokomo Speedway will be the site of the third event, Sunday, May 22. Lawrenceburg Speedway is next on the schedule, the following Saturday, May 28. After a short three week break, the KISS tour returns to Tri-State Speedway, in Haubstadt, on June 19, a Sunday. The King of Indiana will again be crowned at Paragon Speedway, Saturday, June 25.

2011 KISS SCHEDULE
May 6 Bloomington Speedway
May 13 Gas City I-69 Speedway
May 22 Kokomo Speedway
May 28 Lawrenceburg Speedway
June 19 Tri-State Speedway
June 25 Paragon Speedway

KISS isn't a touring series; each track is responsible for conducting the event in accordance with their track rules and the agreed-to guidelines. Drivers draw for heat race starting positions, and features will be 30 laps. Other information will be promulgated at a later date.

Vukie,

Thanks for the information. The only question I have would be the Lawrenceburg date. On the 2011 Lawrenceburg Speedway schedule that they have up on their website, it shows the date as May 21st not May 28th. I look forward to these shows every year. I am glad the promotors work together on these shows.

I thought last year they moved it to the week before the 500 which would be the 21st. before that it was the same night as the Little 500 and the night before the 500. This date makes much more sense.

This move creates an exciting weekend of racing action, with the Lawrenceburg program leading into the next night's KISS event at Kokomo Speedway; a doubleheader featuring two of the Hoosier state's best known ovals. Additional information regarding the 2011 KISS program will be promulgated at a later date.

Agreed. I was really surprised they didn't make the sprint week schedule this year either. Spiker is really getting that track into good shape and pretty good sized crowds are showing up now. At least they got midget week again.
