Denver racing greats Keith Andrews and Blu Plemons are featured very prominently in the June 2009 issue of "Collectible Automobile' magazine in a feature article chronicling the 1954 Carrera Panamerica Mexican road race.
There are some great photos of the Andrews/Plemons 1954 Cadillac which finished third in the large stock class. This was against factory Lincolns that had a huge budget. Keith and Blu used a borrowed car and had virtually no money. GM built a replica tribute car and it is in the GM heritage collection. This is a terrific article. I didn't know Mr. Andrews but Blu is one of the humblest, most down to earth champions I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Please pick up a copy. This a must read for Colorado racers.
