The California based ‘King of the West’ Series celebrates the conclusion of their 2011 season with a fantastic championship pay out. The 410 sprint car series not only showcased some of the best talent on the west coast this summer, but also boasts a marvelous point payout that surpasses years past with the formally known ‘King of California’ series.
This year’s ‘King of the West’ Series Champion, Tim Kaeding, earned $20,000 for his efforts. The San Jose native and Roth Motorsports pilot only finished outside the top 5 with the series on two occasions. The Roth Motorsports 83 also found victory lane six (6) times in 2011 – leading all championship contenders.
Evan Suggs, who finished 2nd in the final standings, took home $15,000 for his efforts; while third place finisher, Bud Kaeding, collected $12,000.
$116,000 total was spread out among the top 15 drivers in the standings.
