episode 3048: Fuelin’ Around with Deadly Driver’s JK Kelly
Jetting off to Monte Carlo…speeding through the tight turns of a mountain road en route to an evening at the casino…what could be more exhilarating? After racing in a grand prix, Bryce Winters boards a luxury yacht to bask in the limelight and mingle with celebrities, only to find a gun to his head…
From the rolling hills of Vermont to some of the world’s most powerful cities, Winters is thrust into improbable adventure, riveting intrigue, and elusive romance. The question remains: can he navigate around the dead-ends in a maze of CIA manipulation and entrapment—or will he fall prey to the sinister forces of underworld intelligence?
While studying journalism at Penn State University our guest traveled to auto races on weekends where he took photos he was able to sell to racing magazines. One of his editors suggested, “You’re taking the pictures so write the feature stories that go with them!”
After a stint with the Darrell Waltrip, Gatorade #88, NASCAR team he spent the next thirty years traveling the world for VP Racing Fuels. But that passion for writing never left him. Following the advice of James Patterson who said “give readers what they want,” - six novels later, from his debut title FOUND IN TIME to his accounts on the road with VP in FUELIN’ AROUND through to his latest thriller DEADLY DRIVER, author J.K. Kelly has striven to do just that.
This episode is part of our ROAD TO SUCCESS SERIES - inspiring stories that help shape the future of the autosphere.
This episode was recorded on-site at the Eastern Museum of Motor Racing in York Springs, PA.
