“KWS Tonight” will be on the road once again this Thursday coming to you from the beautiful Sacramento Delta.
The show can be viewed at the homepage of http://www.kwssprints.com on Thursday evening at 7pm pst and will be available to watch at your leisurely pleasure immediately after the first showing.
This week will feature updates on our California past & present drivers from last weekend, a great piece showcasing Bobby McMahan, an update on the awards banquet, a look at the soon-to-be new KWS office and more.
McMahan this season finished eighth in the King of the West standings and led the tour in PitStopUSA.com hard charger awards.
The 2009 Silver Dollar Speedway champ began his career by garnering Rookie of the Year at Placerville Speedway in 1982 and has also gone on to capture the Northern Auto Racing Club Speedweek title in 1996.
McMahan finished runner up in the ’96 NARC standings driving for Clyde Lamar and scored second in points with the Golden State 410 Series in ’97, while wheeling the Bumgarner Racing No. 88 machine.
The clip on Thursday highlights McMahan and his team’s commitment to the sport, following a tough opening night in Antioch that ended with him upside down after leading the first seven laps of the feature.
Along with that we’ll give a sneak peak of the soon-to-be KWS headquarters, which is located just off the bridge entering Rio Vista, California on Highway 12.
We will also relive highlights from Round three of the season at the Ocean Speedway that were seen on SPEED TV. The event saw history be made by Tim Kaeding, as he joined father Brent Kaeding to become just the 2nd driver to reach 50 career series wins.
