WHAT WE KNOW: The second generation driver will start his season next week at East Bay Raceway Park. From there, the team plans to regroup and start their "northern" season in mid-late March at a track yet TBD. With Malcuit and Cornett power plants and two brand new Rocket Chassis in their arsenal, the Drown/Weekley combo is more than ready to tackle the 2013 season. Drown plans to hit as many of the top-dollar regional races as possible, including Eldora's Dream and World 100.
WHERE HE'S GOOD: Drown is one heck of a wheelman. He used to be noticeably better on a tacky track, but that's changed in recent years as he's greatly improved his black slick program. Running against better competition has also helped and, with Sean Weekley's backing, this could certainly be the year in which Doug Drown captures national touring series win with Lucas or WoO. I'm going to go ahead and make an early prediction that the Wooster, OH driver will do just that in 2013.
WHERE TO IMPROVE: This is always a tough question to answer, but especially with Drown, who's game is so polished now it's hard to find an area that he needs to work on. One thing with Doug is, he will try everything he possibly can to get the absolute most out of his car. That sometimes means trying to make a fifth place car a first place car, and that will occasionally get a driver in trouble.
DRIVER'S THOUGHTS: "Sean Weekley has really gotten everything I could ever need or ask for to compete at the highest level. I'm very fortunate for the opportunity to drive for SWR and hope to have a great season for Sean and the entire Weekley family."
