“This is the biggest organization I’ve had the chance to race with, and it’s a tremendous opportunity. I’m grateful for every team that’s helped me grow, and I’m excited to put everything I’ve learned to work with MHR.””
KRIS WRIGHT
Determined. Grounded. Grateful. And the Wright kind of Chevy Tough.
Built on Pittsburgh grit and Chevy‑tough determination, Kris Wright enters his seventh NASCAR season determined, grounded, grateful, and ready. Fueled by discipline, humility, and a deepened gratitude for the teams who helped him grow, he’s turning the page to something bigger.
At 31, with a relentless drive to get better every lap, he steps into this new chapter ready for his strongest season yet.
For 2026, he’s back in the Truck Series. Back in a Chevy. And stepping into one of the strongest organizations in the sport.
Wright joins McAnally Hilgemann Racing (MHR) as the full‑time driver of the No. 81 Chevrolet Silverado, pairing his grit with a team built on championship‑level performance. With crew chief Darren Fraley at his side, a partnership already proven in 2025, Wright enters the season with confidence, chemistry, and momentum.
This is a driver who’s earned every opportunity. This is a team ready to elevate him even higher. And this is the season where it all comes together.
2026 is shaping up to be one unforgettable ride, for the team, the fans, and the sponsors.
