Kris Wright is an American driver with a varied motorsport background that includes sports car racing, open-wheel competition, and a stint in the Euroformula Open Championship before he transitioned into stock car racing. He built early credibility in prototype competition, winning the 2018 IMSA Prototype Challenge LMP3 class championship, and later expanded into NASCAR's national touring divisions, including the ARCA Menards Series and the NASCAR Xfinity Series, before settling into the Truck Series as his primary focus.[1]
In the NASCAR Truck Series, Wright has amassed 119 career starts, two wins, and 12 podium finishes, reflecting a steady if unspectacular presence in the field over the course of his career. He currently competes for Performance Tech Motorsports and holds a Racer Rating of 2,701, placing him 1,365th among active drivers on the sport's broader competitive scale. In the 2026 season, Wright has yet to record a win or podium through 18 rounds, sitting 32nd in the standings, a season that so far continues the modest statistical profile of a driver working to build on his sports car pedigree within NASCAR's truck division.[2]
