Keselowski starts 35th in No. 12 Dodge
Saturday, Nov. 07, 2009
FORT WORTH, Texas – Brad Keselowski makes his Cup series debut with Penske Racing this weekend, in one of the three races he will run in the No. 12 Dodges this season as he prepares for a full-time move to the organization in 2010.
"We're just trying to manage an expectation," said Keselowski, who won a Cup race earlier this season driving for Phoenix Racing. "That's probably the biggest thing I'm trying to learn for next year, what we can do to be a contender."
While Keselowski has won six races and made 101 starts in the Nationwide Series, his Cup experience is limited. He will start 35th on Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway.
"I'm really looking forward in getting this opportunity the next three races," he said. "I don't think that any one of these weekends is going to dictate our future together, but I think that the three together will be a good idea where we will be."
