ULMA Announces Board of Director Changes and Additional
Sponsors!
The ULMA announces the following personnel changes within the ranks of
its board of directors effective immediately. Kevin Coyne of Kingsville,
Missouri, will now serve as the association’s new President, having
moved up from his Vice President position. Coyne, a late model track
champion from Central Missouri Speedway and Valley Speedway has accepted
his new role and is “determined to stay on the pathway to success.” The
new Vice President is veteran driver Kevin Kaiser of Cole Camp,
Missouri, who previously held one of two Technical Inspection positions
with the association. Kaiser is also a track champion, having earned his
crown last year at Lucas Oil Speedway. Tony Wineland of California,
Missouri, moves to the board of directors where he will fill the
Technical Inspection position vacated by Kaiser. Wineland brings a vast
amount of racing knowledge and professional association experience to
the ULMA team. Danny Lorton, Jerry Lee Henson Jr., Walt Imhoff, and
Russell Kueffer complete the association’s board of directors’ roster.
ULMA recently announced W-K Chevrolet of Sedalia, Missouri, as its title
sponsor for the coming season; now the association is pleased to
announce two additional business partner sponsors. INCE Race Cars of
Minden, Nebraska, specializing in late model chassis and a Division of
Warner Motorsports, has announced they will offer a new Powdercoated
late model chassis to the ULMA 2007 Champion at half price, a $2,100
savings! INCE Race Cars can be found on the Web at

tracks and special events. During the season drivers will earn points by
competing at Callaway Raceway, Central Missouri Speedway (CMS), Lucas
Oil Speedway and Valley Speedway or designated special events by keeping
