Todd Kelly is a retired Australian professional racing driver who made a name for himself in the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship, with a career spanning over two decades. Born on October 9, 1979, Kelly is the older brother of fellow Supercars driver and former Bathurst 1000 winner, Rick Kelly.
Kelly's foray into the world of racing began in 1999, when he made his debut in the V8 Supercars series. He drove for the KMart Racing Team alongside Greg Murphy, finishing 3rd at Bathurst in his first full-time season in 2001.
Kelly's breakthrough year was 2001, where he finished 6th in the championship and secured his first-round victory at Sandown Raceway. He continued to impress in the following seasons, finishing 5th in the championship in 2002 and 9th in 2003.
In 2003, Kelly joined the Holden Racing Team, where he won the Sandown 500 in wet conditions, amidst controversy due to a late-race tussle with the Team Dynamik Commodore. This win marked a significant milestone in his career.
In the same year, Kelly was part of the two-car Holden Monaro assault by Garry Rogers Motorsport on the 2003 Bathurst 24 Hour race. Alongside co-drivers Jason Bright, Greg Murphy, and Peter Brock, Kelly won the race, crossing the line just 0.3505 seconds ahead of the team's lead car.
The 2005 season saw Kelly claim five podiums, including three wins, making it his most successful year in V8 Supercars. He continued to drive for his family team, Kelly Racing (now known as Kelly Grove Racing), since 2009, becoming the youngest driver to reach 100 starts in the series.
Throughout his career, Kelly has achieved numerous milestones, including finishing 6th in the championship in 2001, 5th in 2002, and 7th in 2004. He has also won several round victories, including the Sandown 500 and the Bathurst 24 Hour race.
