A RACING LEGEND THE EARLY YEARS
In only its fifth year of professional competition, Kia Racing (Kia & Kinetic
Motor-sports) has established itself as a serious contender on the track. Kia
has already secured two championships, garnered six wins and racked up 19 podiums proving that Kia is a force to be reckoned with. Other factory teams (who shall remain nameless) have taken up to 10 years to reach the podium.
In 2014, Kia Racing will enter its third season of Pirelli World Challenge
competition, with a pair of the newly redesigned turbocharged Optimas in a quest for a manufac-turers title. Racing against the likes of BMW, Ford, Nissan, Porsche, GM and Acura, the Kias will travel across the country to compete in the intense 16-race Pirelli World Challenge season. And we want you to be a part of the action.
Kia Racing travels all over the United States and races in some of the biggest motorsport venues in the country.
