We raced our Hemi and Wedge cars in Div 1 and always had the pleasure of seeing Ken and his family competing for many years, always a gentleman and a great family. He will be missed.

In the late 70's he and the 65 SS/B were a big influence on me wanting to go stick shift class racing. I will miss him.
