    He is a nice guy. I have known him for probably 10 years.. watched him race pure stock v-8 back in the day. Great family support, they know how fortunate they are for Daulton to have that ride. I sat and talked to his mom for 2 hours at the World Finals last year. He was in great shape to pick up a Lucas win last year when a caution came out, can't remember which track. I'm really pulling for the guy to do well and win some races.

    Daulton and brother Ethan started racing in the Young Guns class at Dublin (NC) Speedway. In order to reach them, their cars had 2X4 wooden blocks on each pedal. Daulton has won in everything, every class he's ever driven.

    Man those were good times there, the thing I remember the most was how they were always working on the cars, getting them ready to race and how mature they handled themselves as youngsters.

    This will sound kinda corny, but watching them both race and grow into the young men they have become makes me proud for and of them. ….I’m sure their parents must be beaming.

    Solid racing family.

    He was good last year, I look for him to be even better and more consistent this year!

    He shows lots of speed but can’t seem to put a whole race together yet. That consistency will come soon.

    All you folks constantly complaining about rich kids racing only because of their daddy should be rooting for Daulton Wilson. He worked his way up the hard way.. not because of a rich family member buying him a ride.

    If I remember correctly: Overton recommended him for the ride because of his strong work ethics and abilities??

    Wilson has been impressive so far especially this only being his second year.

    I remember seeing them in a mustang Mach 1 pure stock real early on, was something I rarely saw at a dirt track and thought it was cool.

    A guy I know had his Ford Pickup stole from his hotel at the same race a few years ago. Not sure exactly what it was... maybe a King Ranch, but it was a high dollar truck.. in the $70 k range. Police said no use in looking it, was probably already on a boat.

    With this situation if I had to guess they will find the trailer ditched in a deserted area. I'm thinking the thieves just want the truck.
