Steve Kinser won the World of Outlaws sprint car feature at Black Hills
Speedway. Car owner Karl Kinser looks on.
Rapid City, S.D. (July 5, 1987) – Steve Kinser overcame tire problems to hold off Coors Light Racing teammate Brad Doty at the finish line Sunday night at Black Hills Speedway.
The victory was Kinser’s third in the last four weeks giving him 21 feature wins for the 1987 World of Outlaws campaign. The seven-time “King of the Outlaws” is rapidly approaching the record for victories in a season – 28. Kinser set that record in 1980 and Sammy Swindell equaled that total the following season.
Johnny Herrera led the first two laps of the feature before Kinser, who took the checkered flag at Black Hills in 1983 and 1984, went low in turn one on the third lap and never looked back. Doty was five-car-lengths back at the checkered.
Sammy Swindell’s car suffered a broken torsion bar, but he still managed finish third. Bobby Davis Jr and Mark Kinser, who started side-by-side in the third row, finished fourth and fifth, respectively.
Mark Kinser ran an impressive 16.606-second lap in time trials to take his fourth pole position of the year.
