Antron Brown | Championship Driver | "I Can and I Will" | S6 EP 11

From humble beginnings in New Jersey to becoming a four-time NHRA World Champion, Antron Brown has been rewriting history at 300+ mph. As the first African American to own a professional drag racing team — AB Motorsports — Antron’s story is one of legacy, resilience, and fearless ambition.

Imagine strapping into a machine that rockets down the track at over 330 miles per hour — with your legacy, your team, and your dreams riding on every run. That’s the life of Antron Brown, a four-time NHRA World Champion, proud New Jersey native, and the first African American to own and drive for his own professional drag racing team, AB Motorsports.

Antron’s path wasn’t just about speed; it was about breaking barriers, making history, and proving that with faith, discipline, and relentless drive, you can compete — and win — at the very top. From his earliest days watching his uncle race motorcycles, to grinding his way through the NHRA circuit, Antron carved out his lane in a sport where few looked like him. And now, as both owner and driver, he’s not only chasing trophies but also building a business and inspiring the next generation of motorsports leaders like his kids.

In this episode, Antron opens up about:
🚦 His humble beginnings in New Jersey and how family fueled his love for racing
🏆 The intense work ethic and mindset it takes to dominate on the track
💼 Transitioning from racer to team owner and entrepreneur with AB Motorsports
💡 How he’s paving the way for diversity and inclusion in motorsports
🔥 Lessons in leadership, resilience, and what it really means to be “driven to win”

This isn’t just a conversation about drag racing — it’s about chasing greatness no matter the odds. Whether you’re a motorsports fan, a young athlete, or an entrepreneur, Antron’s story shows what happens when preparation meets opportunity, and when passion collides with purpose.
