If anyone noticed...there's no winner or runner-up listed for C/SA at Indy in 1970 from the ND results. Ken Lau told me that he won his round in the semis for C/SA in 1970, but the torque converter was going bad in the car, so he loaded up and did not run the finals. He was afraid of hurting the car. I cannot recall who he was supposed to run, but Kenny told me they got tossed or broke. He always said he wished he would have went up and at least staged the car.

Al Adam (Chrysler Engineering) drove the car for Kenny at Indy in 1971 in C/SA. He red-lit against Ted Flack in the C/SA finals.

Kenny raced the car as a 426/425 Max Wedge in C/SA. It was a '64 440 sedan. I have a couple clippings with ET/MPH. The attached is from 1970, and I have one from Numidia in 1971 where he ran 11.74 against George Supinski in the semi's.
