    Here he is in '97 being inducted into the Super Stock Magazine HOF. Although I had seen him race many times it was the first time I had met him and he was truly a nice guy.

    My condolences to his family and friends

    One of the Road Kings, and one of the best fuel drivers ever. Don't know how many times I watched him drive, no drama, just consistent performance. He drove for the best (Sour Sisters, Gotelli, Mr Norm, etc, etc.). He started with a '57 Chevy at Hollywood High, and never looked back....RIP

  14. Talked to many friends and racers last evening at Kenny's wake,
    found out that on May 20th at the NHRA Museum at 7PM, they will be
    having a celebration of Kenny Safford's life which is open to all who
    can attend. Will also honor Rod Pepmuller(ch***is builder) who also
    past away just last week.
