If you’re ever wondering just how it feels to feel relatable to the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, ask Brad Keselowski. And no, the Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing driver hasn’t made a wild entry to the top tier of the Forbes list.
Rather, the NASCAR driver’s relatability with the Tesla CEO stems from the takes about a scene from a movie.
Musk had recently tweeted about Idiocracy, a 2007 flick that led him to wonder how similar the opening scene of that movie is to the discussions he has with his friends.

After that, the driver-owner shed some light on the financial side of things when it comes to preparing for a race weekend in a simulator and engineering.
“I think we probably saved a million or two in travel and spent it all back in simulation and engineering to try to unload at the racetrack and not blow out tires and still be fast, and arguably that’s not working for anybody,” Keselowski said.
