Kevin Buckler is the founder and CEO of The Racers Group (TRG) and Adobe Road Winery. He is a professional race car driver and team owner running the single winningest privateer team in North American sports car history with over 100 victories in multiple professional classes. His racing career began in 1995 when he won at the California Grand Prix in his TRG built Porsche 911. Today he has four victories and 13 podiums at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, GT class victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 7 series championships in IMSA, Grand-AM, and Pirelli World Challenge. TRG ran a multi-car effort at Daytona for 22 straight years and is the only team to have ever run a 5-car Porsche team successfully for 8 straight years. And in 2012 TRG ran the Aston Martin Racing Team in North America. And then there’s his Adobe Road Winery. That’s an inspiring story in and of itself.
