KELLER’S THOUGHTS ON HIS NEXT MILESTONE:
“It’s hard to believe I’m at another milestone in this series with start number
450. Its been a whirlwind couple of years and the accomplishments I have
made in my professional career means a lot to me. I’m hoping for many, many
more years in this sport and to setting a few more records/milestones along the way.”
KELLER’S THOUGHTS ON RICHMOND:
“Richmond has always been one of my favorite race tracks. I truly enjoy racing there. The non-stop action, side by-side-racing under the lights makes for an exciting race not only for me as a driver but for the fans also. It’s just an overall great experience racing at Richmond.”
