Ryder Wells

Go-kart racer turned micro sprint talent, Ryder Wells, is blazing a path to the Championship in the Southern Premier Series Pro Truck division at Houston Motorsports Park. After competing against veterans of NASCAR, World of Outlaws and other nationally-recognized drivers in an open-wheel sprint car, Wells stepped up to Pro Trucks and was the mid-season points champion. Now, with two races left, he is in the hunt for the title.

The 16-year old from Lumberton, Texas kicked up some dirt in 2022 at the C. Bell Micro Mania, the Sooner 600 weekend, the Lucas Oil NOW 600 Series and other major sprint car events. With numerous wins under his belt, he went truck racing and won the first heat race of his career as a rookie. Wells said he isn’t backing off the throttle anytime soon and will visit the CARS Tour event next month at South Boston Speedway.
