DWR 2011 Season Recap

Donny Walden and the DWR Team have closed the book for the 2011 racing season edition. After competing in almost 50 nights of racing, in over 9 different states, the Towanda, Illinois native decided to call it quits for the year. "We ventured out a lot this year racing and didn't get to compete in much local shows around home, but I learned so much this year out on the road racing different tracks, it has to make you better, as a racer and as a team in a whole". Said Walden on his efforts in the 2011 season. Whether or not the statistics box is a glamour with big numbers, Donny and the team made numerous sacrifices and dedicated many of hours away from family and friends to race the way they did this year.
