DonnySchatz

This season will be Donny Schatz's 29th on the road with the World of Outlaws, and there isn't much left for this living legend to accomplish.

Ten championships. Eleven Knoxville Nationals. Six Kings Royals. And many, many more triumphs highlight Schatz' resume on the way to his current tally of 316 World of Outlaws wins (third most all-time).

Perhaps the most impressive part of Schatz' career is the way in which he's reached his numbers. He's known for being one of the most respectful drivers ever in addition to being one of the most talented. The 47-year-old has maintained a philosophy of racing as clean as possible and searching the slick for a lane by a competitor when an aggressive slide job might've gotten the job done quicker.

Before he began with the World of Outlaws, Schatz had early success in the sport.

Schatz was born in Minot, North Dakota, in 1977. He began racing go-karts at a young age, and quickly showed his talent for the sport. In 1993, he won the WISSOTA Sprint Car Rookie of the Year award. The following year, he won the WISSOTA National Championship.

And if Schatz' abilities behind the wheel of a race car aren't enough, he's got some talent in the air as well being a licensed pilot.
