Kenny got the coupe out of an old barn a couple of years ago. He remebered who had bought it back at the end of the 68 season after winning an allied championship at St. Charles. The old car was rough but him and Jack Warner restored it to what it looks like today.
Lake Hill Speedway?
- Thread starter Guza
- Start date
i know for a fact that if they open this track as a asphalt track which there isnt one within 4hours of here that my dad (doug klein) will immediatly begin to put a car together
we have been picking tooth and nail to get a track around here. we thought we hit it big when they almost opened one in ofallon along 64 but the people of good old o town bashed it.

Im going to guess asphalt since the track is already asphalt but lets see if the track even sticks aruond. But with that said the track and walls need repairing so they might just dig it up and start over or lay 3 or 4 inches on top. We will see.
Hay KEG any up dates.

Hay KEG, so you want to know if the track will make it? My guess is still YES. I just looked at the # of views to this post and there have been OVER 51,000 people look at it one time or more. Any updates you can offer?

Would Kenny Range work as the 1954 Champion.
The picture is of Bruce Humphrey and Kenny Shrum. Bruce was our announcer for many years after Al Brinkmeier retired. I know Bruce told me he raced and had a team car. Forgive me if I have misspelled any names.

Ivan Simms ?
I should have known that.......
Ivan was a important man in local racing . I have a number of photos of him at Lake Hill and with my mom at awards banquets. His son George built me model car modifieds when I was a youngster.
