Matt Kenseth is a professional auto racer in the NASCAR circuit. He began racing cars in his youth on the speedways of his home state of Wisconsin. In 1998, he had his first big win at the GM Goodwrench Service Plus 200. He has gone on to win the Coca-Cola 600 in 2000, the Nicorette 300 in 2008, and the Daytona 500 in 2009.
Kenseth won his first Daytona 500 on February 15, 2009. He was the leader of the race when it was postponed due to rain on lap 152, and was declared the winner when the race could not be restarted. He went on to win the Auto Club 500 the following week, becoming the fifth driver to win the first two races of the season.ESPN Video: SC Highlight Of The Night - Auto Club 500

Quote
"My dad made me a deal when I was 13. He would buy me a race car and drive it if I would work on it and keep it up. Then, when I turned 16, I could drive the car. It was hard work, but it was also a great experience and really prepared me to do more than just steer the car."—Matt Kenseth, on how he got into racingOfficial Site: About Matt Kenseth-
