Kyle Petty

Kyle Petty, a legendary figure in NASCAR, has transitioned seamlessly from a celebrated racing career into broadcasting and philanthropy. He currently serves as an NBC Sports NASCAR broadcaster, providing insights for pre- and post-race coverage of NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series races. Additionally, Petty contributes to NBCSN's daily motorsports show "NASCAR America."

Throughout his 30-year racing tenure, Petty achieved 173 Top-10 finishes and, since retiring in 2008, he has established himself as a knowledgeable on-air commentator across several networks including TNT, SPEED, ESPN, Turner, Fox Sports 1, and the Performance Racing Network. Beyond broadcasting, he engages with fans through digital platforms as a content contributor for NASCAR.com and as a co-host of the weekly radio show "Fast Talk."

Petty's philanthropic efforts are anchored by his leadership at Victory Junction—a camp he founded for children with chronic or life-threatening illnesses. Inspired by his late son Adam, Victory Junction has provided over 115,000 camp experiences since its inception. Petty's commitment extends through his annual Kyle Petty Charity Ride Across America, which has raised over $20 million for children's hospitals and Victory Junction. His contributions to society and the NASCAR community exemplify the values he promotes as CEO of Petty Enterprises, emphasizing excellence, integrity, and teamwork.

Raised in a family deeply rooted in racing, with his grandfather Lee Petty and father Richard Petty as prominent predecessors, Kyle grew up in Level Cross, N.C., and spent significant time at race tracks such as Daytona, Charlotte, and Talladega. His enduring influence in the sport and his ongoing community involvement make him one of NASCAR's most respected figures. In addition to his broadcasting and philanthropic work, Petty explores his passion for music and storytelling, evident in his nationally best-selling memoir "SWERVE or DIE: Life at My Speed in the First Family of NASCAR Racing," and hosting shows like "Coffee with Kyle" and "Dinner Drive with Kyle Petty." He resides in Charlotte, North Carolina with his wife, Morgan, and their sons, Overton, Cotten, and Davant.
