Brad Keselowski, the 2012 NASCAR Cup Series winner, is heading into the 2022 season with an aim to expand his exploits as a driver. The former Team Penske driver joined Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing as a driver as well as a part-owner.

However, this year, Keselowski, the entrepreneur, is building upon his investment portfolio aside from his role as a part-owner at RFK Racing.

This is because it was recently reported that Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing will invest nearly $5 Million as part of an expansion project. KAM is based in Statesville, North Carolina and it was founded by Brad Keselowski in 2018.

Brad Keselowski predicts big things for the Next Gen

Brad Keselowski, who has been a regular fixture in almost all of the testing sessions of NASCAR’s next-generation car, aptly named, the Next Gen, recently described just how far it can take the sport in the future.

“With respect to the Nascar Next Gen car and the upcoming media rights, we think it will be a watershed for the sport,” Keselowski said. “It will drive the value of the sport and its teams considerably higher over the next decade.”

Speaking of his new role in the RFK Racing team, Keselowski remained hopeful but admitted the work that needs to be done. “It’s going to take a lot of work, a lot of attention to detail and it’s really that simple,” Keselowski said.

As for his new team’s past, the former Penske driver isn’t all that bothered. And the reason for that, is again, the Next Gen car for the part-owner.

“A number of the reasons I think [the team] wasn’t successful, though, interestingly enough, are not relevant to the future,” he said.

“The Next Gen car and some of the matters it addresses lend itself well to our company as we grow together.”
