He is an engineer by trade. Can't remember which school he graduated from, wanna say NC State, but not sure. He has been around dirt racing his whole life with his Dad Lee Roy. But he worked for CV Products, which is owned by Clyde Vickers, Brian's Dad. And they are in NASCAR etc heavy. So he developed a knowledge of not only dirt racing, but also asphalt racing.
Just a really smart guy who not only has book smarts, but also common sense real world smarts. Real rare combo.
Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

His father began racing late 50's I believe and hasn't quit yet. So he grew up racing with his father in and around the Carolina's with many different drivers thru the years with his father building the engines. Its my understanding that Clements does some of the machine work, mainly the heads. Kevin is college educated mechanical engineer and he use to work with CV Products, not sure of his employment now. He also redesigned the Longhorn chassis and the manufacturing process they use from scratch a few year back, 2013 or 2014 I believe. K&L Rumley Ent. is "Kevin and LeRoy". He thinks for himself, is educated and experienced, but pretty sure he isn't an alien.

He consults now for a hefty fee. He was just out West dialing in Tony Toste's new XR1. He came out earlier this year, same place (CA) for a vacation and also crawled around our new Longhorn. A really nice guy.

I thought he designed the fuel injection used in NASCAR now , not the fuel pump......could be wrong about that though.

Yeah he told me and a driver I used to help with about it, oh I say about 6-8 years ago at the Firecracker 100 we sat in the hauler and talked to him for a good 4 hours and I believe that every team in Nascar used his fuel pump other than Richard Pettys cars. It was neat talking to the guy, half the stuff I couldn't even comprehend.

All really interesting. So he doesn't actually travel with JD?
