There is no finish line when racing families need help.
The Steve King Foundation was established after the on-track death of Steve King in 2006. For more than 40 years, the King family has been deeply rooted in the traditions of family, farming and racing. Danny and Naomi King and their son Steve were inseparable — partners both on the family farm and on the dirt track. As a teenager, Steve got behind the wheel for King Racing #88 and charged through the ranks to become a dirt track champion with two National Championship Racing Association Sprint titles under his belt. But Steve’s career ended tragically after a broken suspension part caused a fatal collision with a fence at the Knoxville Nationals in 2006.
But that’s not where his story ends.
At first, Danny wanted to erase any connection to the racing life — until the cards, letters, donations and love from the dirt track family came pouring in. This overwhelming show of support inspired the King family to honor Steve’s life by establishing the Steve King Foundation.
