About Johnny Miller
From beginnings on the drag and dirt tracks
of eastern Tennessee and autocrossing over the Southeast to success in
NASCAR/Winston Cup, ALMS
Petit Le Mans , and Trans-Am,
Johnny Miller IV has risen to become one of the best in his profession.
Miller's success on the track has come through hard work and success
as an engineer and businessman. Setting out on his own, he built a network
of sponsorships and partnerships to fuel his entry into the Trans-Am series
where he got his foot in the door with his "homebuilt" car.
Once underway, Miller quickly made a name for himself winning Trans Am's
Rookie of the Year in 1996 and Most Improved Driver in 1998.
Miller's early success, professionalism, and attention to fans made him
a favorite among fans and fellow drivers. Sponsors soon noticed, and Miller
was able to sign on to represent some of the top companies in the automation
and logistics industries.
2003 saw the best year yet for Miller Racing: Johnny posted eight podium
finishes in ten Trans-Am starts, finished second in the Trans-Am points
standings, and was also selected to drive the Morgan-McClure team entry
in two NASCAR Winston Cup road course races.
