NST: Kaeding named to Kinser Racing

TIM KAEDING TO PILOT SECOND KINSER RACING TEAM SPRINT CAR

The National Sprint Tour is pleased to announce that well-known and exciting driver Tim Kaeding of San Jose, CA has been chosen to drive the Steve Kinser Racing #11K sprint car and will be competing with the National Sprint Tour in 2006.

When contacted in Indiana, one of Kaeding's first comments was, "It's a privilege within itself having the opportunity to drive for Steve. Everybody would love to be where Steve is in racing. He makes a sprint car do crazier things than anybody's done in a sprint car and he is the best teacher that anyone could have in sprint car racing."

"I'm just overwhelmed with joy I will be able to work with him and every body on the SKR team. With Steve's record of having a first class operation, it helps my confidence by being in the best equipment possible. My goal is the same as Steve's. Go out and win. Go out and win and learn everything I can."

"Also, I'm very happy that we will be running the National Sprint Tour. I, and my dad (Brent Kaeding) and brother (Bud Kaeding), have always been treated with a lot of respect when we ran with Brownfield Promotions in the past and appreciate that. I'm really looking forward to the 2006 season with Steve Kinser Racing and the National Sprint Tour."

With over 50 feature wins on the west coast and elsewhere, Kaeding's success and history is well known and his move to the Kinser Racing team is seen as a positive step for all involved.

Steve Kinser, Danny Lasoski, Jason Meyers, Paul McMahan, Shane Stewart, Brian Paulus, Tim Shaffer, Jason Solwold, Jason Sides, Joey Saldana, Brandon Wimmer and Lucas Wolfe have already signed to race the 2006 NST season schedule and Tim Kaeding is a worthy addition to this impressive list of National Sprint Tour drivers.
