Ken Kaltschmidt in the #27 car took first place with the Vintage Modified Racing Association for 2018. Ken came to VMRA in 2017. He is a seasoned Late Model driver, but came looking for a more economical, more fun-type of racing. Ken and his partner, Vince Conwell, bought a Chuck Peterson built car from John Mustered. They tuned up the car and proceeded to show the teams how fast these cars can go. Ken is not only quick on the track, but quick to share his knowledge and expertise with anyone who asks.

Not only did the #27-team win the 2018 championship, these two men were voted in as the ‘Best Sportsman’ by their peers.  This team ended their season with a total of 636-points. Also, they were in the top five at mid-season.  Congratulations to Ken Kaltschmidt and Vince Conwell for a fantastic year.
