A sad loss of a real nice guy.

I worked with him a few times, he always knew what he wanted, but always had time for the guys around him.

RIP Ken, you will be missed.

Very sad indeed. He looked to be quite a character and skilled driver. I remember seeing him drifting at Goodwood one year at the Players Classic.
