Team Owner
Stock-car driver Brad Keselowski has climbed to his sport’s challenging peaks, cranking out top-place finishes and wins for Team Penske. He has won races in each of NASCAR’s three national series and, last July, he came out on top in the Coke Zero 400—his first victory at Daytona International Speedway, as well as the Penske team’s 100th cup win. Now in his sixth season with that team, he has also launched his own truck-racing team, Brad Keselowski Racing.
Keselowski, who began his NASCAR career in 2004 at age 20, was born into a racing family. His father Bob raced trucks in the Camping World Truck Series and his uncle Ron drove in NASCAR Cup Series races in the 1970s. From an early age, Keselowski came to understand a fundamental truth of car racing: besides driving at the track, you may have to spend a lot of time on the road getting from one event to another.
These days, however, more and more racers avoid that grind by employing business aviation, and Keselowski is no exception. Five years ago, he bought a Bombardier Learjet 45 that he bases in Statesville, North Carolina, near where he now lives with his girlfriend and baby daughter. The aircraft gets a thorough workout flying Keselowski, his family, and his colleagues all over the U.S. during the 36-weekend racing season each year.
