Brad Keselowski will honor his family’s rich racing heritage at the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park on September 3 with throwback paint schemes on the No. 19 and No. 29 Ford F-150s. The BKR team owner’s father, Bob Keselowski, and uncle, Ron Keselowski, joined Brad on Tuesday night’s Race Hub on FS1 to unveil the unique throwback paint schemes.
No. 19 Draw-Tite Ford F-150
The No. 19 Draw-Tite Ford F-150 features the purple and white paint scheme that adorned Ron’s cars in both USAC and what is now the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. In a span of five seasons from 1970-74, the Troy, Michigan, resident scored 11 top-10 finishes in 68 starts as a driver, highlighted by a pair of fifth-place finishes in back-to-back seasons at Michigan International Speedway. He also worked closely with Brad during the early days of his racing career.
No. 29 Cooper Standard Ford F-150
The No. 29 Cooper Standard Ford F-150 will mark the 20th anniversary of Bob’s first NCWTS win with a replica of the truck he drove to Victory Lane at Richmond International Raceway in 1997. He made 86 NCWTS starts in five years as a driver from 1995-99. Bob also racked up eight victories and six poles as a Truck Series owner from 1999-2006.
