SiriusXM announced today that JR Motorsports owner Kelley Earnhardt Miller and veteran NASCAR reporter Danielle Trotta are teaming up to host a new weekly show on the SiriusXM NASCAR Radio channel. Beyond Racing will debut on Thursday, February 7, and air every Thursday from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm ET.
Born into a racing dynasty that produced some of the greatest and most popular drivers in NASCAR history, Kelley Earnhardt Miller has achieved remarkable success in her own right to become one of the most successful owners in the sport. Alongside Trotta, Earnhardt Miller will offer unique perspective as a front office executive with a pedigree of racing excellence that extends beyond the track.
“I have always enjoyed being on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio as a guest, and I’m very excited to now join the SiriusXM team as a host,” said Earnhardt Miller. “I look forward to sharing my perspective on life as a team owner, talk about the Earnhardt family and legacy, and much more. It’ll be a thrill to be able to talk with NASCAR fans across the country each week, and to work alongside a respected NASCAR reporter and friend like Danielle.”
Considered one of the most prominent businesswomen in NASCAR today, Earnhardt Miller is the vice-president and co-owner of JR Motorsports. She oversees the company’s race team, management team, and business ventures for her brother, Dale Earnhardt Jr. JR Motorsports fields teams in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series and NASCAR Whelen All American Series for local late model cars, and has collected three of the last five NASCAR Xfinity Series championships.
“I couldn’t be more excited to work with Kelley,” said Trotta. “She is someone I admire both as a person and an executive and it is an honor to call her a friend. Her pedigree, experience and success in the sport make her an authoritative voice that NASCAR fans will enjoy hearing from, and will certainly learn from.”
In addition to the new show with Kelley Earnhardt Miller, Trotta, who has covered NASCAR for more than a decade, will be expanding her role on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio in 2019. She will be the lead host for the 11:00 am to 1:00 pm show every weekday starting on Monday, February 4. Trotta’s co-host on the show weekdays will be two-time Daytona 500-winning crew chief Larry McReynolds.
“I’m thrilled to be expanding my role on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, and I’m excited to be paired up with one of the great crew chiefs in NASCAR who’s been a trusted voice for many years,” added Trotta. “Larry’s preparation and ability to not only inform but entertain race fans has been second to none for decades. We are really excited to team up and both talk to and hear from race fans over the course of each week.”
