[edit] Racing Career
Sellers started his racing career in karting, beginning at age 7. By age 13, Sellers was driving open wheel sprint cars, collecting 11 feature wins in his first 20 races. After competing for several years in sprints, Sellers decided to try his hand in stock car racing on asphalt ovals. He competed at South Boston Speedway as a rookie, winning rookie of the year honors in the super-stock division. Sellers currently races in the NASCAR West Division, where he drives the #16 NAPA Auto Parts Chevrolet. He is currently the points leader, with his only win coming at Douglas County Speedway on July 1, 2006.
Sellers competed in his first NASCAR Busch Series race at New Hampshire International Speedway, driving the #31 Chevrolet for Marsh Racing. Sellers is rumored to be planning on sharing the wheel of the #21 Chevrolet, which Kevin Harvick currently drives, part time in the series in 2007.
