Since 1996 the Edelbrock Corporation has been giving out a scholarship to Northwest Kansas Technical College in memory of Vic Edelbrock, Sr. who was born and raised in northwest Kansas before moving west and establishing Edelbrock. This year's most deserving recipient was Keith Carroll of Longmont, Colorado who earned a 3.389GPA while enrolled in the Automotive Technology program at Northwest Kansas. His impressive work resume, blue collar work ethic and hands on experience made him the ideal candidate not to mention his academics, essay and video interview that set him apart from the other five finalists. His tuition, books, fees, clothing and tools will be covered throughout the two-year Associates program. Keith said after he graduates he wants to work in the field and learn as much as he can and one day open his own shop where he can focus on off-road trucks and performance vehicles. Vic (Jr.) and daughter Christi Edelbrock presented Keith a check in the amount of $7,500 along with a few other gifts at the Hot Rod Power Tour stop in Topeka, KS on June 9th.
