Greenwood Village, Colorado, United States, November 2025 – Building on a strong year of growth, FullSpeed Automotive, one of the nation’s largest franchisors and operators of automotive aftermarket oil change and repair facilities, has appointed Brian Maciak as Chief Executive Officer.

He also served as Executive Vice President & General Counsel and was one of four members of TBC’s Management Council, which set the company’s long-term strategy and led its executive leadership team.
“FullSpeed has tremendous brand recognition, especially with its 945 owned and franchised Grease Monkey®, SpeeDee Oil Change & Auto Service®, and Kwik Kar® locations,” said Brian Maciak. “We will build on this solid foundation and lead the team to even greater heights, winning by holding ourselves accountable and delighting customers with honesty and value-added services. I look forward to partnering with our franchisees and company-owned store teams to deliver superior performance.”
Maciak brings extensive experience leading both company-owned and franchised businesses at scale. Known for his people-first leadership style, strategic mindset, and commitment to operational excellence, he will partner closely with the FullSpeed Automotive leadership team to drive growth, enhance franchisee collaboration, and deliver exceptional customer experiences systemwide.
FullSpeed Automotive is a portfolio company of MidOcean Partners, a leading private equity firm focused on high-quality, middle-market companies.

We are confident Brian will continue unifying company-owned and franchise operations, elevate customer service consistency, and build on the rich heritage of our iconic brands to make them the most trusted names in automotive care.”
