Only at the SCR
If for no other reason then this, do not miss SCR15, as today I received word today that not only will Ken Barnhart once again have his ZL_-1 Camaro at the SCR, but he is planning on making a pass or two. Ken is one of the most liked, and respected persons in our hobby, plus races one of the most historic supercars of all time, the 1969 ZL-1 Camaro he bought brand new from Fred Gibb himself.

Re: Only at the SCR
Any chance we could get Ken up in the tower for an 'interview' some time Saturday?
This guy has stories that go on forever. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

Re: Only at the SCR
For those that don't know about Ken. I think he is 71 ? Years old and pulls the wheels off the ground with his 4 speed ZL1 that he bought new and runs in the 10's

Re: Only at the SCR
I'm trying my best to get to SCR 15 as I have had the honor to attend and show my L89 at a couple of SCR's and meet some of you crazies!!!!. <span style="font-weight: bold">These are one of the best events that one could see.</span> A lot of nice and rare muscle that many people will never have the chance to see on the track or at the show.
I was fortunate enough to be trailer buddies with Ken Barnhart one year at the SCR when it was in Collinsville and had a chance to meet him and his significant other, Mrs. B..... a true class act they are. His car really is "something else". Here's my question, of the original 69 ZL1's is Ken the only one to still be the original owner? I know these car change hands over the years but I'm just curious.
