Biography:

Racing is in Brad Keselowski’s DNA. As a third-generation driver, he grew up in a home where spending time at the race shop and the track was just a way of life. His dad, Bob Keselowski, competed in the NASCAR Truck Series for several years, winning the fall race at Richmond International Raceway in 1997. His uncle, Ron Keselowski competed at the Cup level in the early 1970s.

Brad made the transition from turning wrenches for his family-owned team, K Automotive Motorsports, to racing in 1998 when he started competing in the Senior Honda 120 Quarter Midget division. In his first season he earned six feature wins. The next year he moved up to the Senior Honda 160 Quarter Midget division where he won eight feature races and the championship.

In 2000, Keselowski moved up to stock cars and began racing in the Factory Stock division. That season he collected nine feature wins as well as rookie-of-the-year honors at both Auto City Speedway and the Dixie Speedway.

During the next three years Keselowski balanced his budding racing career with his full-time job working for his family’s NASCAR Truck Series operation. He moved up to the Limited Late Model and Super Late Model divisions and despite competing on a limited basis, Keselowski continued to rack up wins. In 2001, he earned five fast qualifier positions, one feature win and five top-five finishes. In the next two seasons he collected 11 fast qualifier positions, two Super Late Model wins, two Limited Late Model wins and nine top five finishes.

In 2004, Keselowski stepped into the NASCAR Truck Series ride operated by his family-owned K Automotive Motorsports team for eight races. The following season he ran the full Truck Series schedule. His best finish was seventh at Daytona International Speedway.

Keselowski competed on a limited basis in both the NASCAR Busch and Truck Series in 2006.

He started the 2007 season racing for Keith Coleman Racing in the Busch Series until the team suspended operations in June. When Germain Racing needed a last-minute replacement for Ted Musgrave at Memphis Motorsports Park later that month they called on Keselowski. He scored the Bud Pole Award, led four times for a total of 62 laps and contended for the win.

Keselowski will make his debut in the JR Motorsports’ No. 88 Navy Accelerate Your Life Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS this weekend at Chicagoland Speedway in the USG DUROCK 300.
