Donny Schatz wins the Knoxville Nationals



Donny Schatz wins his second Knoxville Nationals in as many years last Saturday Night. This is one of two non-NASCAR races I watch every year. The World of Outlaws dirt sprint car series is awesome. This is thier Daytona 500. The biggest event of the year.

I remember when I lived in Des Moines and worked at a rental car agency across the street from the airport. People would fly in from all over the country with no hotel reservation, no rental car reservation just hoping to get to Knoxville, which was about 45 minutes away. At that time I was not a race fan, so I didn't get it. I do now and I wish I'd have gone to check it out when I lived down there.

Congrats to Donny on your 2nd Nationals win and signing with Tony Stewart Racing for next year. Word.
