The young man has 2002 career wins.  How many tracks has he driven at fulltime?

Saratoga
Meadowlands
Plainridge

These are tough tracks to win at and win driving titles too! You also need firepower to drive and a little luck too!

My trainer started Brett with horses to drive very early in this career, and they were not the easiest to drive yet alone win with.  2 of his earliest winners were at odds of 20/1+.

Driver Brett Beckwith capped his marvelous year at The Big M by becoming the youngest driver in harness racing history to reach the career 2,000-win plateau. The 22-year-old pilot won the fifth race Saturday (Dec. 27) night with Belmont Major N to reach that lofty number. 
Beckwith finished the year far in front in the Meadowlands driver dash-win standings with 146. Mark Herschberger was second with 99.

If he stays the course, he could be the all time dash winner, ever..that being said, let's hope he didn't inherit his old man's demons  tmbz1

Not sure I agree..Palone has 41 years on Beckwith...500 wins a year keeps him on course
