I like this Keselowski guy

I never had heard of Brad Keselowski before he remarkably won the Aaron’s 499. After watching him hold his ground as Carl Edwards blocked, and then brashly talked about how he loved the wild racing the Superspeedway presented, I’ve got some real respect for this young driver.
No doubt he want be intimidated by the “big boys” of racing. He reminds me a lot of a young Dale Earnhardt Jr., and I’ll be following him in the coming races to see if he is the real deal.
On another thought, you’ve got to be happy for James Finch, the owner of the car Keselowski drove. Finch, who for over 20 years ran his car shop in Lynn Haven, Fla., got his first Sprint Cup win as an owner on Sunday.
It was something to see - young Keselowski and the veteran Finch - celebrating like there was no tomorrow.
Good, good stuff.
And thank goodness nobody was seriously injured after the horrific crash at the race ended.
