2026 outlook: Varricchio heads into the 2026 season as the defending Late Model champion after securing a career best year behind the wheel. Only one season removed from winning his first career Late Model feature, Varricchio scored three wins and finished 14 of his 15 starts in the top-10 for an astounding average finish of 3.9. Varricchio was such a dominant force in the Late Model division last season that even a mechanical failure that forced him to miss the fourth race of the season couldn’t keep him from racing to the championship. With 5 wins in the past 2 seasons, Varricchio will be looking to continue being a front running car as he defends his championship.
