GRRL! SUMMARY:
- DYSTANY SPURLOCK made history as the first Black woman in NASCAR’s development pipeline, starting eighth and finishing seventh in her ARCA Menards Series East debut at Hickory Motor Speedway.
- Driving the No. 66 Foxxtecca car for MBM Motorsports, SPURLOCK completed all 200 laps, battled 2025 series champion Isaac Kitzmiller, and secured the highest finish ever by a Black woman in the series.
- SPURLOCK went a lap down early but rallied to return to the lead lap by halfway, showed composure through multiple restarts, and avoided a late-race spin to protect her historic top-ten result.
- Supported by Black-owned Foxxtecca and targeting a Cup Series debut, SPURLOCK races next at Rockingham on April 4, then aims for national series debut at Kansas on April 18.
