Wispy Scores First Career Win in NRRS Season 2 All-Star Race

Wispy is officially a race winner!

In a wild NRRS Season 2 All-Star Race, the driver of the Aetherwing eMotorsports #28 broke through for his first ever career victory, surviving chaos, strategy calls, and a late charge from the field to take the checkered flag in the non-points showcase.

The All-Star format kept the entire grid on edge, with segment breaks, resets, and plenty of opportunities for bold calls on pit road. Wispy and the team played it steady early, focusing on track position and clean exits, before committing to an aggressive strategy for the final stage. A well-timed stop and strong restart pace put the #28 firmly inside the top three with laps winding down.

On the final run, Wispy cleared traffic, defended the high lane, and controlled the tempo of the race while the pack behind fought for second. A late push from rivals wasn’t enough to unseat the Aetherwing entry, and the #28 crossed the line first to lock in Wispy’s long-awaited maiden win in NRRS competition.

While the All-Star Race doesn’t pay out championship points, the result is a major confidence boost for both driver and team. For Wispy, it’s a statement moment: proof that the pace, racecraft, and strategy are all there — and that the #28 is ready to fight for full-season wins when the next NRRS points race goes green.

Player_13 Wins Chaotic Kmart All-Star Showdown After Final-Lap Drama

The 2025 Kmart All-Star Showdown at Darlington delivered exactly what fans expect from an All-Star race — chaos, drama, and a finish nobody could’ve predicted.

The closing laps came down to a fierce three-way battle between Jaxon, Player_13, and Wispy. But on the final lap, everything unraveled. Entering Turns 3 and 4, Jaxon sent his truck into an aggressive divebomb that failed to stick, triggering a massive crash that collected half the field. As the pack scattered, Jaxon shoved Player_13 into the outside wall on corner exit, dragging both cars toward the line in a tangle of sheet metal.

Race control reviewed the incident, and after a full post-race ruling, Jaxon was officially disqualified for avoidable race manipulation — handing the All-Star victory to Player_13, who ran in the back for much of the event before the late-race fireworks.

Behind the chaos, Wispy slipped through the wreck to secure an unexpected but well-earned second-place finish, marking his best result of the Kmart Cup season.

The Darlington All-Star Showdown delivered everything but calm — and with the playoff stretch approaching, tensions across the grid have never been higher.

Jaxon Breaks Through at Iowa — Aetherwing Scores First NRRS Win of the Season

Aetherwing Claims Its First NRRS Win of the Season

Aetherwing eMotorsports earned a huge breakthrough at Iowa Speedway, with Jaxon capturing the team’s first NRRS victory of the 2nd season after an intense and strategic late-race battle.

For much of the event, Player_13 looked poised to secure the win after leading a strong portion of the race. But as the laps counted down, the dynamic shifted — and Jaxon found himself in position to strike.

Closing In: The Chase Begins

With tire wear settling in and the long-run pace becoming crucial, both Jaxon and Nico began reeling in Player_13 during the final stretch.

The once-secure lead evaporated as the three drivers tightened into a single battling pack.

Inside the final 10 laps, the gap between them disappeared, setting the stage for a dramatic finish.

After clearing Player_13, Jaxon took control at the front — but immediately came under fire.

Nico, carrying strong pace for NGM, slipped into second place and launched a series of attacks on the #3 Toyota.

The final laps became a high-intensity duel between the two teams:

• Both drivers trading momentum

• Multiple attempts from Nico to get alongside

• Jaxon defending flawlessly and maintaining composure

It was a clean, disciplined fight — the kind that defines championship-caliber racing.

Sealing the Victory

Despite relentless pressure, Jaxon held on and crossed the line first, giving Aetherwing:

• Their first NRRS win of the season

• A huge momentum boost heading into the All-Star stretch

• A key victory over rival NGM

• A statement of growth in team pace and execution

This win marks a major milestone for the organization as the season continues.

A Statement for the Road Ahead

The Iowa victory didn’t just give Aetherwing points — it affirmed the team’s upward trajectory in NRRS competition.

With Jaxon delivering under pressure and the roster finding stronger pace week by week, the team looks ahead with confidence.

More races, more battles and more chances to soar.

The 2025–26 Roblox Kmart Cup Series season opened with a spectacular victory for Aetherwing eMotorsports as Flamingo drove the #22 Apex Sim Racing Chevrolet to the win in the prestigious Daytona 500 on September 22nd, 2025.

This race was anything but straightforward. With drafting partnerships deciding the outcome in the closing laps, Flamingo and teammate Will (#94) executed flawless teamwork. The pair locked bumpers and pushed away from the field after the final restart, creating a two-car breakaway that no one behind could match.

On the white flag lap, Will protected Flamingo’s rear quarter panel, holding off a late charge from one of the rival teams and ensuring the #22 car remained stable through Turns 3 and 4. Flamingo took the checkered flag with Will finishing a strong 2nd place, giving Aetherwing a dominant 1–2 sweep at one of the most important races of the season.
