Bio

Brad Sweet heads into 2023 with a target on his back.

The Grass Valley, CA native has forever cemented his spot as one of the best in Sprint Car racing history with four consecutive World of Outlaws championships heading into this season, and he and his Kasey Kahne Racing crew are fully committed to the drive for five.

Sweet has spent all nine of his years with The Greatest Show on Dirt driving for Kahne. Together they've tallied more than 80 World of Outlaws victories. Among those many triumphs are a Knoxville Nationals championship and a pair of Kings Royal crowns.

The Big Cat went from racing locally in California to venturing into the USAC ranks in the midwest. Sweet even had a stint in NASCAR. Those all led to his current path to the mountaintop of the World of Outlaws. He's the champ. And he's got no intention of relinquishing the top spot.
