I thought Danny Burtorn took over running this last year? Maybe he can give us some insight???

The question has already, in effect, answered here. No KISS for now, but who can know what the future holds?

Well thanks Danny, Terry and I know there was at least one or two others who kept the series going till now.

I can see where it might be hard to work out dates for a 7 race series.

There are nearly 20 MSCS dates in Indiana this year, over 20 dates for USAC, BOSS ventures into Indiana 4-5 times. Think about the dates that USAC Silver Crown or midgets are running plus special shows like the Josh Burton Memorial. Finding 7 dates at 7 tracks could be a challenge.

I mean lets face it, we don't mind who is racing as long as there are 410s on the track, at least I don't. But people want to see the Shorts, Darlands, Windoms, etc.

I could see where they're coming from in that aspect.

I'd seen a lot of good KISS series racing in its tenure.
Seeing Jesse Hockett putting Bernie Stuebgen's Indy Race Parts #71 thru it's paces (C, B & A mains) at Paragon that one KISS show....Wow! Doubtful those there that night...will ever forget that drive!
