Brad Keselowski Gets Fans’ Support in Hilarious Demand From Kyle Petty as Massive Achievement Resurfaces on Twitter

Son to Richard ‘The King’ Petty, and grandson to NASCAR pioneer Lee Petty, Kyle Petty has cemented his name in the books as one of NASCAR’s best drivers. With a huge family legacy to live up to, Kyle Petty quickly made his name in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series as a dominant threat on the racetrack. Although he never won a championship, the 1992 and 1993 seasons were the highlight of Kyle Petty’s NASCAR career.

Petty won at the ‘Budweiser at The Glen’ and ‘AC Delco 500’ in 1992 and ‘Champion Spark Plug 500’ in 1993, finishing both years in the 5th position on the Championship standings. Now a full-time race analyst and commentator, Kyle Petty is better known for his iconic ’93 victory celebration at Pocono Raceway. Following his win at the Champion Spark Plug 500, Petty was seen with a video camera filming the celebrating crowd in Victory Lane.

Recently, a photo of Kyle Petty at Pocono in 1993 has resurfaced, prompting a hilarious reaction from RFK Racing co-owner and driver, Brad Keselowski.

What Is the Story Behind Kyle Petty’s Videotape?

The 1993 Champion Spark Plug 500 at the Pocono Raceway is one race fans won’t be forgetting anytime soon. It was the only race where a daring fan sprinted across the racetrack, narrowly avoiding the speeding Cup cars, while the race was in its final stage. Kyle Petty drove down Pocono’s Victory Lane, securing his 7th NASCAR Winston Cup Series career win. Driving the #42 car for SABCO Racing, Petty led for 148 laps during the race, pulling away from his competitors during Lap 185 to bag the win. Pole winner Ken Schrader finished second, 4.9 seconds behind Petty. Dale Earnhardt finished in 11th after an oil leak broke his 20-lap leading streak. 

Victory Lane at Pocono saw an ecstatic Kyle Petty standing atop his Mellow Yellow Pontiac, videotaping the crowd celebrating his first and only win of the season.

Along with the win at Pocono, the week leading up to the race was also eventful for Petty. Riding Harleys through New England with a few friends, Kyle Petty covered over 1700 miles on his motorcycle, videotaping the journey. With his camera still rolling during the Victory Lane celebrations, Petty said to The Gazette’s Tom Higgins, “We taped the whole bike trip, what a great way to end the tape.”

A photo of Kyle Petty videotaping the crowd at Pocono in 1993 recently resurfaced on Twitter and Brad Keselowski couldn’t contain his elation.

Tagging Petty in the picture, Keselowski put forth a hilarious demand. “Where’d this film go @kylepetty?” wrote the RFK Racing #6 driver.
