News Flash: In our opinion, Karl Ludvigsen is the Great Kahuna, Fearless Leader, The Boss, The Chairman, The Wiz, all wrapped up into one enigmatic bundle of car enthusiasm.

If you’d like to meet this amazing guy, he’s appearing in Watkins Glen NY, at the IMRRC this weekend, Saturday, April 13 and will speak about “A Lifetime on Wheels”.
