Default 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.

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]

They really are somethin' else!!!

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

Default 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 &quot;something else&quot;.

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.
