Brad Kuhn kicked off the 2007 season with four consecutive BMARA wins and went on to snare his second consecutive Badger championship.  Brad posted a total of ten wins in 2007, including six Badger triumphs, one Australian win in January, a pair of USAC scores at Salem and Macon and an October AMRA triumph at Manzanita.  With 29 top-fives and 44 top-tens in 57 North American Midget starts, Brad ranked second in National Midget Driver of the Year points after taking top honors in both 2005 and 2006.

Teamed with Dr. Love for the second year in a row at the Chili Bowl, Brad shoots for a third consecutive Chili Bowl championship main event after racing from 15th to fourth in 2006 and then being sidelined early after locking in through prelim action last year.
