As part of the Inside Track Short Track Night of Champions presented by Stoneridge Insurance, Donny Beatty was honored for his Ontario Modified Racing Series Championship.
During his time on stage, Beatty announced that he and Robert James Racing would be moving up to the Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup Series in 2016.
“We’re moving up to the Lucas Oil Sportsman Cup Series….and we’re going to playing with the thunder car, too,” Beatty announced. “Stu Robinson Jr. is going to be driving the modified and when we can’t make it, I’ll be in it so going to be busy.”
Despite not picking up a victory all season long, Beatty was constant through his rookie campaign in the series, coming out on top as the series champion at the end of the season.
“First of all, Rob and Darlene James gave us the best car, best equipment and it was always a dream to get into a modified,” Beatty stated. “It was great when they asked me to do it. We were rookie (of the year). To win the championship in our rookie year, you can’t ask for much more.”
