TEAM DFR LOOKING TOWARDS ROUND TWO OF TX/LA SHOOTOUT July 1st-  After claiming Round #1 of the Texas/Louisiana Wing Modified Shootout David and team DFR are ready once again to do battle!  With several weeks off the team has had alot of time to repair, replace or repaint where needed.  Take a look at the video above highlighting Round Two of the Shootout between the Texas Wing Modified Association and the Ark-La-Tex Wing Modifieds.  Round #2 of the Tx/La. Shootout is set for July 11th at Ark-La-Tex Speedway in Vivian, Louisiana. NEW PHOTOS ADDED FROM LAST FEW WEEKS June 17th-  Over the last few weeks Team DFR has enjoyed a great run racking up two wins and a second in feature action.  But now with a few weeks off in preparation for Round #2 of the Texas/Louisiana Shootout we take a minute to check out the photos over the last couple weeks.

Earning the second highest passing points on the evening, David was set to start he feature front row-outside in the 20 lap main event along last years champion Alan Myers.  The first five laps saw David and the #99 of Doug Ingalls race side-by-side swapping positions several times as Myers was out front.  The two briefly separated on lap 4 as lap traffic came into play but were soon locked at the wheels again until lap 6 where Ingalls got the advantage taking the third spot.  On lap 11 the #28 had momentarily slipped back to the fifth spot until two front running cars tangled on lap 14.  David restarted third then battled past the #84 of Jason Ingalls to secure the second position for the final six rounds.

DAVID WINS ROUND ONE OF TEXAS/LOUISIANA SHOOTOUT June 6th-  After dropping out early last week for electrical problems at Ark-La-Tex Speedway, Team DFR gained a little redemption by winning tonights Texas/Louisiana Shootout between the TWMA and ALTWM's at Cowtown Speedway in Kennedale, Texas. With a bad pill draw the #28 Shed Road Auto Parts wing modified was assigned the 7th starting position in the second heat race.  Under TWMA format, the top four in each heat transfer to the 'A' Feature.  All David had to do was finish 4th or better to tranfer straight to the 'A'.  David did just that as he crossed the stripe 4th securing a spot in tonights Tx/La Shootout. A decent pill re-draw by the top qulaifiers gridded David on the second-row outside for the 'A' Feature.  At the drop of the green it was easy to see David was here for the win.  An early caution bunched the field up for the restart with the #28 in third.  Once green again, the #28 Troyer rocketed to the front in turn one to take the lead only three laps into the 25 lap event.  From here out David survived another three cautions to win the first round of the Texas/Louisiana Shootout.   The win moved David up a position in the ALTWM point standings to 3rd. Team DFR appreciates all the support from their sponsors: Shed Road Auto Parts, Well's Racing Engines, Troyer Race Cars, Smith-Petty Trophies and Warren's Automotive.  Team DFR would like to give a special thanks this week to $1.99 Cleaners and Walker Spring & Brake for all their support.  The "Shed Road Challenge" was increased from $400 to $600 for tonights Shootout, but both drivers declined the offer.  At the next points event the 'Shed Road Challenge' will be $550.
