Brian Frisselle

Brian Parker Frisselle[1] (born December 28, 1983) is an American former racing driver who primarily competed in the Rolex Sports Car Series.

Frisselle was born into a racing family, spearheaded by his grandfather and father Brad; an IMSA GT Championship GTU class champion and an overall winner at the 1977 12 Hours of Sebring.

[3] Following a family move to New Hampshire, Brian and brother Burt began competing in snowmobile racing, an activity befitting their new place of residence.

[10] However, finishes of 18th and 15th would follow, ahead of the team's first victory of the season (and the first of Frisselle's Rolex Sports Car Series career) in Montreal.

Erstwhile leader Darren Law ran out of fuel on the way to the line, and Wilkins won a drag race between himself and the #16 entry to score the closest win in series history at 0.064 seconds.

Following his breakout 2008 season, Frisselle signed with SunTrust Racing, replacing Michael Valiante as Max Angelelli's co-driver for 2009.

Following consecutive podiums at Laguna Seca and Watkins Glen, Angelelli and Frisselle broke through for their first victory of the season at Daytona in July.

Following a serious fire suffered during the 6 Hours of Watkins Glen, the team was forced to switch from a Riley chassis to Dallara from the Mid-Ohio round onwards.

[24] Frisselle returned to Doran Racing for a part-time schedule in 2012, taking part in the Rolex 24,[25] 6 Hours of Watkins Glen, and the season finale at Lime Rock.

For the final season of the Rolex Sports Car Series, Frisselle joined Action Express Racing for a full-season campaign.

[31] The #9 entry entered the 2014 running of Petit Le Mans in contention for the Endurance Cup title,[32] but a 10th-place finish saw them fall short.

In December 2014, Frisselle won the 25 Hours of Thunderhill alongside co-drivers Randy Pobst, Alex Lloyd, and Kyle Marcelli.
