Desire Dunavan

1st year racer
Class: Bombers
Vemilion County Speedway
Danville, IL
Daughter of former 75' track champion Don Dunavan, is starting her first year of racing. She knew she wanted to race when her dad took her to a late model race on her 18th birthday, which was on father's day. "My dad had two girls and so I was the one to carry on the name for him in racing, but they're hard shoes to fill."

Plus she has many racer friends who encouraged her to race. They drive super street and bomber cars. She has three friends that race in her class that try to keep her in line and give her tips right before the big race. Because she started late in the season, she has only raced in 4 races not counting the consis, and made the feature on her fourth race.

She has many plans for her next year of racing. These include, a new motor, paint job, and new numbers. Her new number will be 84 this year. She is looking forward to the next season.
