Kelley, who is the CEO of JR Motorsports, is married to LW Miller, a three-time Modified champion.

The 52-year-old is a graduate of Business Administration from the University of North Carolina and has worked as the VP of Sales at Action Performance. She currently serves on several boards. Kelley bagged the Top 25 Women in Business Award from the Charlotte Business Journal in 2007. She has also raced at local tracks and started driving at 12 at Hickory and Myrtle Beach Speedways.

In a previous post, Kelley Earnhardt shared the meaning behind Wyatt's helmet, which features the No. 3, a cross and a flamingo for racer Jason McDougal.

"Someone asked about the significance of Wyatt's helmet. Dale Earnhardt (3), Jesus (cross) and @jasonmcdougal69 (flamingo)," she wrote.

Wyatt is a fourth-generation Earnhardt and the son of Kelley and LW Miller. He has also driven Pro Spec trucks and tried off-road racing for the first time last year. He finished second in both races at the Dirt City Off-Road National in August.
