Brad Keselowski celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Watkins Glen.
It's like your parents never told you, "Video games make perfect."
Brad Keselowski has spent countless hours practicing his craft, but the the current NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Champion said he couldn't have won Saturday's Nationwide Series race -- the Zippo 200 at Watkins Glen -- without having the strong sense of familiarity with the track he gained by racing on it in video games while growing up.
"I remember I spent a whole summer when I was kind of locked in my parent's shop, because I was just young enough to where they wouldn't let me touch anything and just old enough to where I wasn't getting a babysitter," Keselowski told NBC Sports, via Fox News. "And I remember spending a whole summer sitting on the computer in the office area running Watkins Glen as a video game.
"My mom could tell you that story. I guess it was only a month or two that you have off, but Watkins Glen was always a track I ran. It was just a place I really liked and, I don't know, it's hard to explain, but it's something about this track I have a real deep appreciation for."
One day after winning on the upstate New York road course, Keselowski raced the track again as part of the Sprint Cup Series. The 29-year-old had an opportunity to win in the final laps at the Cheez-It 355 and needed the points to gain ground in the Chase, but he opted not to run into leader Kyle Busch, knowing he "did the right thing."
"When you just run in the back of someone and drive them head first into the wall, that's BS racing and I just don't like it," Keselowski said.
