At JD Metals, we believe in standing behind the people who represent the best of our region. Those who work hard, stay grounded, and give back to the community. That’s why we’re proud to support Brad Teague, a local racing legend for the Tri-Cities area, for many years.
Teague has been behind the wheel for over five decades, representing our community on short tracks and NASCAR national stages alike.
Why We Stand Behind Brad
Brad Teague is the kind of person JD Metals is proud to support. Born and raised in Johnson City, TN, Brad has been racing since the 1960s. Starting on local dirt tracks and eventually competing in nearly 300 NASCAR national events. His passion for racing is matched only by his work ethic, whether it’s building race cars or running his auto repair shop right here at home.
He’s raced against some of the biggest names in NASCAR history: Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty, Jeff Gordan, and more, but he’s always stayed true to this roots.
At JD Metals, we know something about dedication, we’ve built our business on long-lasting relationships and quality that stands the test of time. That’s exactly what Brad brings to the racetrack. He’s still racing today, competing at Kingsport Speedway in the Late Model class, and chasing that points championship like a rookie.
Even into his 70s, Brad continues to do what he loves. That’s not just impressive, it’s inspiring. We’ve had the privilege of seeing our name on his car at local tracks.
Sponsoring Brad Teague isn’t about logos or branding, it’s about being a part of what reflects our values: perseverance, hometown pride, and doing things the right way.
Brad, thank you for allowing JD Metals to ride along on your journey. It’s been an honor and we’re proud to stand behind you every lap of the way.
