Brian Keselowski Motorsports, entering the 2012 ARCA Racing Series, K&N East & West Series

Brian Keselowski, owner and driver of the K-Automotive Motorsports No.92 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team, is now the proud owner of Brian Keselowski Motorsports (BKM), fielding race cars in the ARCA Racing Series (No.29 and No.92) and in the  K&N East and West Series (car numbers TBA) with new up and coming drivers, providing them their start into this sport. K-Automotive Motorsports is still up and running and will continue to be the primary company for Keselowski’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series efforts in the future.

“This off-season has been anything but an off-season. We worked really hard to put things together and kick off this new venture” stated Keselowski. The newly expanded team moved their entire operation into a new state of the art facility in Mooresville NC. BKM has also affiliated themselves with the very successful “Manpower to Horsepower” organization (MPTHP), helping veterans suffering from PTSD and other social skill rehabilitations needed after coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan through working on race cars. Further information about MPTHP and all they do within the racing world and rehabilitating veterans can be found at www.manpowertohorsepower.com 

After a very successful ARCA Racing Series testing session at Daytona International Speedway, held in December 2011, BKM is happy to announce that Miss Sloan Henderson will be piloting our No.29 Dodge Charger, in the “Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200” at Daytona International Speedway, on February 18, 2012. “We really look forward to working with Sloan and will do everything we can to put forth our best efforts to help her launch her racing career in the right direction. I was very happy with her performance during our testing session and I am confident that she will put her best efforts into our team as well for a great outcome”, stated Keselowski. Henderson showed her excitement to drive the No.29 BKM Dodge Charger with the following statement, “I’m truly blessed to have this opportunity to work with BKM and run in the ARCA Racing Series, Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 at Daytona International Speedway. After a great test session with the team, I’m excited about the possibility and feel comfortable that we can do very well”.

In early 2011, Sloan was invited to Daytona for a road course test by Continental Tire in the Grand Am Series. During the test at Daytona, Sloan posted the quickest lap time for that car tested that day.

 Sloan followed the test for Continental Tire by staying at Daytona for the A.R.C.A. series tests. Sloan “flat footed” the first lap on the high banks at Daytona to earn her A.R.C.A. license.

Sloan joined Coulter Motorsports as a signed development driver.

Later in the year, Sloan stepped on the other side of racing and was an assistant coach for the CMT TV series “Made”. She had the privilege of joining NASCAR racing legend Ernie Irvin as they teamed up to teach a 40 year old housewife how to race.

 

Sloan is currently a freshman at Wright State University. She is an alumni of Dayton Christian School having graduated in June 2011. Sloan was active in the, “Worth Waiting For” program at Dayton Christian. She is also active with “Make A Wish”. Sloan traveled to Cleveland in 2009 to grant a wish to a young boy. On December 15, 2008, the City of Franklin honored Sloan with the “Sloan Henderson Day”. The City of Franklin also chose Sloan as the grand marshal for the July 4th Parade held in Franklin, OH. She was also given the privilege of re-dedicating the historical “Lyon’s Bridge.”

 Sloan also has done a weekly update on her racing on the Rebel 105.9 radio station and has co-written weekly stories in 5 local newspapers for the Miller Publishing company. Sloan has also been a featured writer in the e-magazine “The Voice of the Miami Valley.” In addition, Sloan is printed in England in an e-magazine called RacerGirl. She also makes numerous personal appearances plus interviews on radio and TV news programs. Sloan’s combined FaceBook page and fan page numbers have exceeded 11,000 members as of May 25, 2011.

 Sloan is not ashamed of the Gospel and supports corporate prayer before every race. In fact, she and her father pray before every race and most practices. “This doesn’t mean we are perfect. It means we know what direction we are all heading toward”, stated Henderson.
