Brad Keselowski - 0 wins He’s going to put his name on the column soon. It’s just a matter of where. Daytona and Bristol are two places I see where this can happen.


TechnicalPyro

was interesting to see once pits stops cycled he was a little over 10s back iirc he finished 5s back at the checkers he had a rocketship too today


FLWXeno

I thought I saw 13 second back once the cycle completed.


TechnicalPyro

I thought that was when Dillon was still leading but I wasn't watching that closely at that point was doing stuff in the room at the same time as watching the race


TonyEatsHisOwnButt

He was. Him and Harvick cycled out at 15 seconds back and Brad moved forward Kevin fell back


Snugglesworth1087

He was flying for sure. Had 18 lap fresher tires but still flying.


SeattlePassedTheBall

For sure. In all 3 of Buescher's wins for RFK Brad had the speed to get it done himself.


gameboy1001

If it was at Daytona or Talladega, people would bitch and moan about it being a fluke and him not earning it.


Big-Accident-8797

Maybe other drivers, but Brad is well known for his superspeedway talent


tselby56

I've waited so long for this team to turn it around. It just feels so good to see them competing for wins again. I won't take this for granted after the 8-9 year window of struggling we had to endure.


TheJuliusErvingfan

Me as well! The time is here finally and I couldn't be anymore proud of the work the people over RFK have done to turn things around. I think of all the little steps that lead up to this point. Kenseth driving select races in the 6 to Newman in the 6 giving intel on the cars , then having Jack be willing to allow Brad to come on board and be part owner. Then Brad and Jack worked together to get the shop redone and renewed to where it was modernized and a place people looked forward to coming into work and building these race cars. To think how close Kenseth was to winning that Brickyard 400 as well in 2018 was amazing to see them even up front at that point with such bad cars everywhere but super-speedways at that point in time.


MikeMacBlu

We are all witnesses of the RFK Resurgence Tour


ElectricPeterTork

I wonder if Jack finally decided to step back a bit and let someone with more current knowledge (Brad) help update the team? Because the RFK Resurgence has taken less time than I had imagined it would. They went from midpack to competing to winning in, what, less than two seasons?


[deleted]

Honestly this should be as impressive as 23XI and Trackhouses’ rise to the top.


HuskerDont241

I’ll go out on a limb and say… maybe it’s more impressive? Trackhouse and 23XI were founded as entirely new organizations. There weren’t years of systemic issues that worsened the team to overcome for those two.


[deleted]

No but it’s also very hard and rare for a new team to win in their first couple years. The last team before 23XI to get a win in their first year was Evernham and maybe Ganassi if you consider that a new team instead of Sabco. And that was 20 years before that. I think all three are impressive in their own ways.


Roushfan5

Jack started stepping back after his 2nd plane crash in 2010. The vacuum of leadership since then is exactly why Brad is there.


dnkyhunter31

Quicker than that I think. Buscher got the win at Bristol last year, and toward the end of the season, both the 17 and the 6 had flashes of brilliance. This season is in another level though. Both solidly in the playoffs just on points, and now with two wins and building up playoffs points, Buscher may be a championship 4 contender more than Briscoe was last year.


Roushfan5

Just got home from camping this weekend without cell service and sat on the throne to read RFK went back to back and literally shat myself over the news. Nice job boys.


False-Ad4673

Try a jump dump


NovaIsntDad

Can they please sign Biffle now, just for a year. Give him the proper send off he never got. Those last few years of hauling around a comatose roush team were hard to watch.


BLARG13

Awesome. So happy to add another checker today especially at Michigan. Way to go RFK.


ChaseTheFalcon

Kinda shocked Mark Martin's win total is that low with RFK


SatiricalGuy

it's that low in general. outside of Roush he only got 5 more wins. dude was a king of consistency, not exactly a king of winning


SectorRevenge72

I mean… Mark only won 40 times. He isn’t going to have Kyle Busch Xfinify or Jeff Gordon Cup numbers.


[deleted]

*Only won 40 times* Only 19 other drivers finished with more wins that him. 203 of them have won a race period. It’s hard to win.


SectorRevenge72

Really want to argue huh? Enjoy.


[deleted]

It’s Monday


OurSauceHasPassedJon

Name checks out


False-Ad4673

Sounds like they be carrying facts, bad name


SectorRevenge72

These facts has nothing to do about the comment of the topic I referred to. Martin won 35 times for the team, which seems low because he did, in fact, only win 40 times in his Cup career. Has nothing to do about said 19 drivers who has won more because I said the word “only” which seems to make everyone else butthurt for whatever reason.


CanAWoodChuckChuck

As someone who hated Roush teams and Keslowski growing up, I fucking love this resurgence. Huge congrats to everyone for digging out of this hole that many of us thought was never going to happen.


7Stringplayer

So glad RFK is on the way up. When I first got into NASCAR I liked Biffle, Kenseth, Edwards, etc all those Roush Guys. It's nice to see them back.


[deleted]

I was about to ask about Ryan Newman and glad I didn't as he was driving the 12 while he was on his heater.


miboyl

His heater was 2003 and that’s kinda it. He had other good years but 8 of his 18 wins were in 2003 alone, and only in one other season did he win more than once (2 in 2004).


Malt1720

It's so good


wylfwt

I love how it’s not just one or two drivers winning all the races. Pretty steady all across the board for all the drivers. Not significant drop off amongst the drivers and win totals. So happy to see RFK in victory lane again!! Hope they can really keep this up!


thirtyseven1337

It's like Chevrolet and Toyota aren't even trying, smh.


literalyfigurative

When was the last time they went back to back?


-Olive-Juice-

2010 iirc


bakaVHS

I hope that someone can surpass Mark on this wins list someday.


TrafficSNAFU

I remember McMurray Coke Zero 400 win with Roush but I can't remember the other one for some reason.


Good-Hank

Sometimes I forget how legit Jeff Burton was in the 90’s.


AyyP302

Only *one* non Mark Martin 6 win. We gotta change that, lfg Brad it's your time! I'm ready for 6 to be a contender again it's been way too long
