Rackley WAR Forced To Field Backup Truck As Stefan Parsons’ Massive Wreck Highlights Phoenix Practice

The highly anticipated Phoenix showdown kicked off in dramatic fashion as NASCAR Truck Series drivers hit the track for practice. After years of anticipation, Stefan Parsons finally got the chance to commandeer a Playoff-worthy vehicle when Rackley W.A.R. extended an invitation to steer the No. 25 Chevrolet Silverado in the season finale at Phoenix Raceway.

However, the excitement took an unexpected turn with the revelation of an on-track incident involving the No. 25 driver, Stefan Parsons of Rackley WAR, leading to an abrupt halt to the NCTS proceedings.

The No. 25 truck bore the brunt of the collision during NASCAR Truck Series finale practice

As the clock wound down in the practice session for Friday night’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Championship Race, Parsons encountered a setback during a mock qualifying run. The issue propelled him into the outside wall, resulting in significant damage to the right side of his truck. A cascade of sparks accompanied Parsons on his trajectory toward the wall, punctuated by a resounding thud upon impact. The impact resonated audibly, with onlookers, including media personnel, capturing the intensity of the crash.

Toby Christies, providing live updates from Racing America, promptly shared the news on his Twitter account, stating, “Stefan Parsons has gone hard into the outside wall. You could hear the impact from the media center. 2 minutes left in practice. #NASCAR“

In the aftermath of this high-impact incident, it appears that Parsons might be compelled to switch to a backup truck provided by his team, at least temporarily. The unfolding events add an element of unpredictability to the upcoming race, leaving fans and teams alike on the edge of their seats as they navigate the twists and turns of the Phoenix showdown. Moreover, unfortunately, the absence of TV coverage for the practice leaves spectators solely dependent on updates from media channels like Racing America or Essentially Sports.

Following a visit to the infield care center, Parsons shared insights with Toby Christie, delving into the unfortunate turn of events that marred his much-anticipated opportunity.

The weekend kick-off for Stefan Parsons and Rackley W.A.R. took an unexpected turn, leaving them far from the envisioned start. Parsons, understandably disheartened by the crash, expressed his disappointment. Despite the setback, the team swiftly brought out a backup truck from their hauler, gearing up for Friday night’s NASCAR challenge. Reflecting on the on-track incident, Parsons shared his perspective:

“I felt like we cut a right front tire. We were doing a mock [qualifying] run, and went into Turn 3 and laid on the splitter and went straight.”

Expressing empathy for his team, Parsons acknowledged their commendable effort, stating, “I hate it for all of these Rackley W.A.R., Rackley Roofing guys. They did a really good job bringing me a really good piece. And this is just a dream opportunity for me with Curtis and Willie and everybody here. It’s so unfortunate to have that happen in practice. Something out of our control. Just getting the backup truck out, and give it our best shot tomorrow.” Furthermore, emphasizing the determination to overcome the setback, he added, “Nowhere to go but forward.”

Before the practice crash, Parsons had showcased his prowess by clocking the 13th-fastest lap in the field. While the incident altered the trajectory, Parsons remains resilient, poised to seize his dream weekend, albeit starting from the rear of the field on Friday night.
