King Kenny's Throne

Hail the King, Long Live the King:

The throne where great decisions/ideas are made!
This seat accompanies Ken Lindsay to all race meetings.
When critical setup decisions have to be made you will find Kenny sitting on his Throne staring straight ahead in a trance like state. Suddenly he will snap out of it, adjustment are made, lap records fall.
T'is truly a seat of great wisdom, but be warned! sit on it at your own peril.
The Throne is getting a major workout at the moment with the BRA AGM coming up and all those heavy decisions have to be made.

It's not easy being King.
