Brad Keselowski at the Canadian Motorsports Expo

It's funny that when the drivers in Canada do well, they talk of racing in the United States as working in the south. Brad Keselowski works down south - he is the 2010 NASCAR Nationwide Series Champion. The big leagues for stock car drivers. And he brought a lot of NASCAR fans into the International Centre during the 2011 Canadian Motorsports Expo (CME) for a Question and Answer session followed by an autograph session.

Voted the most popular driver in the Nationwide Series for 2008 and 2009, Brad will begin 2011 racing the Miller Lite Dodge number 2 car at Penske Racing. He definitely reminds me of our own NASCAR Canadian Tire Series driver JR Fitzpatrick who hopes be heading south for a few races this year in the same Nationwide Series.

PS there were still some models making the joint all gorgeous and everything.
