Got another favorite this week; Owen Kelly in the #51. These posts are from the Road America/Nationwide thread a few weeks ago:

I have a sort of favorite going in Nationwide this week. Owen Kelly will drive the #54. He is the son of a customer of mine from Tasmania :cool:

The "kid" is 36. He would've raced with Ambrose at home. His dad was a racer too. Owns a truck fleet and runs some of our nat gas engines. Chas (dad) is a really good guy. They're all from around Launceston and Devonport Tasmania.

I talked to his dad after it was announced he would drive the #51 at Watkins Glen. Dad is sooo pumped. The family all flew up from Australia. Dad owns this fleet: Chas Kelly Transport - Tasmania, Australia.

Here is one of our trucks with his fleet:

That is an LNG tank. 460 hp, pulls up to 70 Metric Tons on the Island of Tasmania.

He also likes American cars like all good Aussies:

But then he couldn't read. It's obviously broken, and he should just send it to me. I'll use it in Australia.

Burton actually beat Kelly. I was very happy Kelly was ahead of Mad Max. I don't like him or the 14.
