Wispy turned his 100th career RoRacing start into a milestone NRRS performance, winning Stage 1 and finishing second at Talladega.

A Milestone Night at Talladega
Stage points, a Stage 2 near-miss, survival, recovery, and a near-win made Wispy’s 100th RoRacing start one of his strongest NRRS runs of the season.
Wispy’s 100th career RoRacing start turned into a milestone night at Talladega Superspeedway, as he started 10th, won Stage 1, and finished second in NRRS competition.
The run immediately became one of his strongest performances of the season. Wispy captured the Stage 1 win, marking his first stage victory of the current NRRS campaign and giving him valuable points early in the race.
He followed that up with a sixth-place finish in Stage 2, barely missing out on additional stage points before resetting for the final run to the finish.
Talladega was anything but calm. Multiple wrecks broke up the flow of the race, forcing Wispy to avoid trouble, recover from setbacks, and keep himself alive long enough to contend in the closing laps.
Despite the chaos, Wispy put himself in position to fight for the win on the final lap. Coming through Turns 3 and 4, an incident hurt his momentum and damaged his chance to secure the victory, leaving him to bring home a runner-up finish instead.
Even with the missed opportunity, the result was a major statement. A second-place finish, a Stage 1 win, a Stage 2 near-miss, 50 points, and a move to fourth in the standings made Wispy’s 100th RoRacing start more than a milestone — it made it one of the defining races of his NRRS season.
