Very sad news indeed. Ken's Triple Nickel Plymouth was one of my all-time favorite Super Stock cars and as many here have noted, he was also a fantastic guy with many great stories. My tribute on National Dragster.net http://www.nationaldragster.net/bits...ry-passes.html

ALways a nice smile and a pleasure to talk to. A great guy and racer, will be missed.

Sorry to hear this, met Ken at the Va. National once. He had a practice tree hooked up to a clutch pedal in the trailer. He took time to show me how he set it up, a true Super Stock nice guy. His cars always looked and ran great.
