What does Ken Bouchard consider one of his more challenging races? It was an open show 100 lap Modified race at Monadnock Speedway. His brother Ronnie was driving #3 for Lenny Bowler. Ken got a flat with twenty laps to go, yet he came back to win the race and beat his brother. He loves it all, the speed and the thrill, no matter whom it is against.

The hat Ken wears with greatest pleasure and pride is, his Father hat. Olivia, his 14-year old daughter is an avid horsewoman and his most important supporter. Ken enjoys watching his daughter ride in horse shows. He also enjoys an occasional game of golf for relaxation.
