It was started in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1952 by Nord Krauskopf and his wife Theodora (Teddi) to manage and market a benevolent fund for injured race car drivers.[2] The company was sold to Aon plc in 1993[3] but continues under the K&K name.[1] Early historyAs enthusiasts of motor sports, the Krauskopfs understood the risks involved in that kind of work.[2] They designed and marketed products targeted at the motorsport industry, such as race teams, sponsors, and racetrack facilities.[2] They created a racing team to support the business. During the 1960s and 1970s, the Krauskopfs fielded a team for the NASCAR Winston Cup Series.[2] Bobby Isaac (and his crew chief Harry Hyde) led K&K Insurance to a championship win in 1970.[2] This victory brought 54% of Dodges' points needed for a championship victory in the Manufacturer's Championship; breaking a seven-year streak created by the Ford vehicles.[4] These vehicles were mainly Dodge Chargers and Dodge Daytonas.[5] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web | url = http://www.roughnotes.com/rnmagazine/2002/march02/03p55.htm | title = Founding date/location of K&K Insurance | publisher = Rough Notes | accessdate = 2011-07-25}} {{DEFAULTSORT:KandK Insurance}}{{US-finance-company-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web | url = http://www.kandkinsurance.com/Pages/CompanyHistory.aspx | title = Company history - K&K Insurance | publisher = K&K Insurance | accessdate = 2011-07-25}} 3. ^{{cite journal |url=http://www.roughnotes.com/rnmagazine/2002/march02/03p55.htm |title=K&K celebrates 50 years of success |date=March 2002 |last=Tadevich |first=Debra |journal=Rough Notes |accessdate=January 18, 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.legendsofnascar.com/Bobby_Isaac.htm | title = Additional info about 1970 Championship Win | publisher = Legends of NASCAR | accessdate = 2011-07-26}} 5. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.streetlegaltv.com/news/bobby-isaacs-kk-insurance-nascar-chargers/ | title = Bobby Isaac and the K&K Insurance NASCAR Chargers | publisher = Street Legal TV | accessdate = 2011-07-25}} 6 : 1952 establishments in Indiana|Insurance companies of the United States|Companies based in Fort Wayne, Indiana|Financial services companies established in 1952|American companies established in 1952|Companies established in 1952 |
