Kris had a very good night at the Wilmot Raceway coming home 10th in the A-main of the IRA Sprint show. His car looked really strong amongst a very talented field. Dennis is steadily getting faster but tonight he didn’t make the transfer from the B-main. They will compete at the Beaver Dam Raceway next Saturday Night.

May 7,2012

The team had an overall good night after a slow start. Kris was able to transfer to the A-main right from his heat with a car not quite to his liking on a very fast race surface. Dennis had to go to the B-main as his set-up was not to his liking. Mike and Zack went to work on the 41 and Dennis was able to transfer to the A.

The A got a couple of rough starts and the 41 lost air on the left rear during a red flag but the team got him going again before the green was dropped. He had to start on the tail.

The track was still extremely fast from a heavy misty fog. Kris finished 10th and Dennis 13th.

The team looks forward to next week with the IRA Sprints invading the Wilmot Raceway.

May 3, 2012

The KDS Racing Team is excited about competing at the track that they grew up on, the Wilmot Raceway. Dennis has not raced there for over 8 years and is super excited about coming home to his favorite track. The team is hoping for a good turnout of fans and local sponsors. Come on out and lets have some fun.

April 27, 2012

Want to welcome “All Around Detail Signs &Vinyl Graphics” to our team this year. They can provide all your signage needs and are located in Kenosha, Wi. Give them a call.

Genesis Chiropractic has also joined our team for the 2012 season. Check them out if you need help with your health needs.

April 23, 2012

Well, was quite a night for the team. Kris was involved in two wrecks, the second one took him out of the A-Main.

Dennis got collected in the B-Main that bent the rear axle tube putting him out for the night.

It was cold and just not a good night so we will collect ourselves and get ready for Beaver Dam next weekend. See you there.

April 2, 2012

Kris went to Attica, Ohio just to sort out any bugs in the car. He finished 2nd in his heat and transferred to the A. Started the A in 9th position but on the first lap, a 4 car wreck caused his car to get hit from the rear. Didn’t think there was any damage but on the restart, car was not handling correctly so he pulled it in. He was happy with the way the car ran so it made it a worth while trip. He will wait for the IRA season opener at 141 Speedway on April 21.

Mar 26, 2012

The season is fast approaching and the team is ready to go. In fact, Kris is traveling to Attica, Ohio Fri, Mar30 for a single day show to work out the winter stiffness. The following week-end , he may return to Attica for a 2 day All-Star Sprint show. The weather has been getting better and hopefully the rains stay out of the forecast. Dennis will be traveling to Salem soon to join the team for all the last minuet preparations

Mar 10, 2012

KDS Racing is putting the final touches to the race cars in preparation for the 2012 IRA racing circuit. Anyone still interested in becoming a partner, you must act fast. The first race date is fast approaching and we are sending our race cards to print. So don’t hesitate, we can still work with any budget that your business can afford to create traffic and awareness for your client demographics.

Feb 3, 2012

A tentative schedule has been released from the IRA and Wilmot Raceway. KDS Racing has posted our schedule based on what we know right now. There are a few dates that may change so please watch for any changes that may effect your plans. KDS Racing hopes to see you at as many venues this season as weather permits.

Dec 27, 2011

KDS Racing hopes everyone had a great Christmas and will have a very happy New Year. Be safe and have fun.

The team has taken some time off for the holidays but plans to get back at it right after the first of the year. We have seen some of the preliminary dates for races next year and it looks like Steve and the rest of the IRA board is hard at it to bring another great year of racing to the fans of the mid-west region.

Our plans are to run all the IRA shows and a select number of non-sanctioned shows. We will post our schedule as soon as we can, probably about mid March.

If anyone knows of persons or businesses that would like to partner up with KDS Racing, have them send me an e-mail (dspitz@logantele.com) so we can set up a date to talk about terms. We have plenty of available space still for 2012.

The "Friends of Racing" campaign is still active. If you have a family member or friend that would enjoy seeing their name on a race car, send us $2 and we will get their name on the car and an e-mailed picture sent to you (about April/May) . You can contact me at dspitz@logantele.com.

KDS Racing is looking for some tires for the team. Goodyear's for the rears and fronts are what's needed. Give us a call if you have something.

Dennis is getting ready for the coming season. He will be driving the 41 car and hopes all his friends come out and enjoy some good racing. He intended to run last year but an injury forced him to sit out the entire year. He is working on body condition and is anxious for the season to start.

Thanks to all our sponsors from KDS Racing. Lucas Oil, Merlin 200k Miler Shops, Don's Auto Parts & Machine Shop, FMG Auto Wraps, FatHeadz Eyewear, Chutes & Ladders Pub & Catering, and Sakura Sushi & Grill.

Dodge county was another tough night for KDS Racing. All the rain the prior week let the track very heavy and narrow for the beginning of the evening. The track was super fast all night long. Kris missed the transfer to the main in his heat but was able to make it thru the B-main. He finished 19th in the A-main after starting from the rear. Our set-ups for this track are still not good but we continue to try.

Kris finished 14th in points over all and has a 100% participation level. This is a credit to his crew who work hard to give him what he needs race the best he can.

After season festivities will begin in Nov with the awards banquet. Hope to see some of you there.

Sept 29, 2011

Another rain out that just puts the damper on the season. We go to Dodge County this week-end for the final night of the IRA season. The forecast is looking good but the temperatures may run a little cooler than we like, so wear your heavy stuff and join us for the end of the season.

Sept 8, 2011

Well this past weekend was a bust. Friday at Dodge county was eventually rained out after towing there and all the work to try to get the track ready for races. Many people were disappointed.

Then it was onward to Plymouth for the fair date. Well rain was misting all afternoon and into the evening. We finally got the show in but it was always a threat of rain. Kris did not have a good night as he finished the night in the B main.

Sunday was supposes to be the night when the weather was forecast to be great. Well it rained out just after the cars packed in the track after a late shower.

This week-end we are off to Superior on Friday night and Cedar Lake on Saturday. Maybe the weather will cooperate.

Aug 29, 2011

Sorry for the absence, a medical problem has kept me occupied until now. Still only running about 60% but that is a vast improvement.

Kris ran a very impressive 2nd place at Wilmot Saturday night. It was one of his best runs this year at this Raceway. The new car has been a learning experience. He struggled at first but has improved dramatically here recently. He made the investment in a set of super shox shocks and he is very excided about how they feel. This weekend is three days at three different tracks so we will be busy. Stop by the trailer after the races and say hi if you have the chance.

May 20, 2011

Mother nature caused another cancelation for KDS Racing. The scheduled event for May 20 at Mississippi Thunder was canceled due to a strong weather system coming in.

The Cedar Lake event for Saturday is still a go.

May 16, 2011

Mother nature caused another cancelation for KDS Racing. The scheduled event for May 14 at the Wilmot Raceway was washed out when rain came early Saturday and the cold winds came racing down from the north. Man it was cold.

The team will be heading out for a two day weekend early Friday. First up is Mississippi Thunder for their inaugural 410 sprint event and then it's on to Cedar Lake Speedway Saturday for a $3000 to win event. We hope the weather holds and we can really get to racing.

May 7, 2011

Kris and the team ventured to the famed Knoxville Raceway in beautiful downtown Knoxville Iowa. The IRA has visited this venue for many consecutive years and this trip continues the tradition.

Kris has struggled with this facility but has made steady progress and this trip was no exception. We set the car up with last years set-ups and made improvements every time he came in. Next year we feel really good about as he became very comfortable in the car with our last adjustments.

The team moves on to Wilmot this next week for a WoS event. Kris and his dad should be ready to go. Kris’ new car should be completed by the end of the week and his dad should be able to move back into the #41.

May 3, 2011

We would like to send a special Thank You out to our new sponsors for 2011. Just this past week, all the way from Albuquerque, New Mexico, Sakura Sushi & Grill has become an associate sponsor.

The start of the race season was rough for the two car Spitz Racing Team. After rushing Saturday to finish Dennis’ 41 car they arrived at Beaver Dam Raceway just before the drivers meeting.

Kris qualified with a 13.199 and Dennis qualified with 14.404. Starting last in the first heat race, Dennis avoided a wreck and finished 6^th to run in the B main. In a packed heat race, Kris started on the front row and finished 5^th to make it into the A main. Starting 10^th in the B main, Dennis was only able to advance one position to finish ninth. Kris started 13^th in the A main and after several laps hit a rut coming out of turn 2 and flipped the car off the wall ending his night. Currently, Kris is 20^th in the point standings with a 91 and Dennis is in 24^th with 76 points.

It will be a busy week preparing the 4K for Knoxville Raceway on May 7^th,Dennis will be taking the weekend off.

2012 Tentative Schedule is now posted
