I was fortunate enough to spend 24 hours with Kenny at his ranch bench racing. It is an experience I'll never forget.

Here is a picture of my buddy Cory West and Kenny playing at his ranch

I wish they had turned the music down and let us hear the howl of that beast.
4-187cc two stroke cylinders spinning at 10,000 rpm barking through unsilenced pipes will make the hair on your neck stand up.
It is a sound you don't forget.

Too cool King Kenny

I was there!! Way cool! Couldn't believe the way Kenny just LAUNCHED it down the track. We all thought we were going to see a monumental crash but when he completed the first lap and launched into the second lap everyone was standing and screaming. AWESOME spectacle.

As I recall, the idea was that Vale would take a demo lap afterwards, but he declined and said that "tonight is Kenny's night." I think he might've been just a BIT intimidated.

Was there too, I couldn't believe how long he held it open on the back straight, the sound of the two stroke, then pitched in the corner. Amazing guy King Kenny.

There is a reason they call him King.
