"King Kong" Randy King dominated the Mid-Season Classic Modified division taking on the field in full Thriller fashion to capture his 6th victory of the season at The House of Hook this past Saturday night in his Lewis Wrecker/Watts Family IRP Racecars by Jason Ingals. 6 championships including 5 at track championships have made Randy & the #K1Team a household name over the last 8 years, becoming a fan favorite with an awesome driving skill. Don't believe what you hear either, New York City has underground bank vaults filled with Gold, but out here it's more like win tonight so you can race next week.
This is a family owned team with most of it's funding coming from reinvesting earnings & car owners Rick King & "Booger" Mac Urston. Budget racers very rarely taste the type of success Randy has but talent carries you just enough to beat the other guy & with just a little backing it could make him a star. A star he is, though not like from the movie screen, this Clarkdale MS resident lives out his fame any chance he has or when the gates open at the local speedway just 15 miles down the road in a neighboring small country community that has been known forever as Whynot.
Randy has been the one to beat in 2016, but it wasn't long ago that the King of Modified's was on the outside looking in. 2012 he suffered a back injury in a crash driving a late model Jackson Motor Speedway that sidelined him for several months costing him a modified championship before coming back & scoring a huge win in the end of the year Fall Classic. 2013 would not be much better after an early season wreck totaled his ride leaving him sidelined most of the season. 2014 rolled in but broken motors & a new job took most of the season. 2015 was a comeback year & this year looks to be his best ever if he can continue his roll of dominance for the latter half of the season.
