03/26/03 | Jim Brewer | To the left of the photo is a blue coach with a red and white striped roof - - that car was owned by Kenny's and may have been driven this night by Davey Marburger. Once he got the ride with Wertz, Kenny's car became his "back-up" and other guys got to drive it. |

07/25/03 | 3-Wide | Hey John - I'll take any info all you Reading guys can dish out as one of life's regrets is that I never made it to Reading. Thanks to Mike, Jim Brewer, Steve, yourself and others, you guys can keep us on the right road here... By the way, have you picked up Mike's 3rd edition of Strapped in? |

12/27/03 | David Walter | This ride is what got Kenny's career going all he needed was good equipment to show what he could in a modified. I also have a picture of Kenny's first sportsman that he raced at Grandview in 68 flipping down the backstrech. Sure don't seem that long ago.12-27-03 |
03/11/04 | Pilgrum | Remember Kenny's first ride in Bob's car ? He barrel rolled it in the second turn. The car was the coupe Bill Williams ran. |
