Yes...Mike Keener and Paul Mercure are legendary racers who campaigned a 67 and 68 Camaro under the name Checkmate. Prior to this era they ran an early Corvette, and later campaigned a Vega throughout the 70's. I believe they continued racing all the way up to 2006 when they finally took a break, and later returned to race a 2012 Copo which Mike Keener is still active with today.
