Danny also raced Bandalaro and Legends Cars and gained considerable TV time in the shoot outs at Charlotte's Lowes Motor Speedway. In 2001, Danny competed in a mustang in the Mini Stock class at Florence Motor Speedway, winning 2 races and finishing 3rd in the points championship in spite of missing several races due to Go Kart commitments. The 2002 schedule is entirely stock cars and Danny hopes to race Late Models starting next year.

In 2002 Danny competed successfully in the Pro 4 Mod class at Florence Motor Speedway winning the Track Championship by beating many seasoned drivers. Needless to say he captured the "Rookie of the Year" title as well.

During 2003 Danny competed in the UARA STARS touring series.  Great Late Model experience was gained on some of the most fabled tracks in the South against the top Late Model drivers in the country.  Danny completed the year with an 8th place points finish - as a 14 year old!
Danny has continued to run Late Models, finally breaking in the winners circle in 2005 and winning 8 times during 2006.  He also won the John Newsome Performance Parts Jamaica Championship in 2006.
During 2007, while adding to the Late Model win tally, Danny had the opertunity to start 3 races in the NASCAR Busch (now Nationwide) series. He out qualifed the teams regular driver all three times in the back up car but only attempted the entire race one time.  That was on the Monster Mile in Dover where a cut tire ended the day prematurely.2007 also saw Danny graduate with Honors from High School and begin college as an Engineering major.
