Daulton Wilson’s transition to Big Frog/Viper Motorsports and his early progress in the World of Outlaws Late Model Series have defined his 2026 season. Wilson ended a four-year stint with JRR Motorsports last fall and began the year driving for Big Frog/Viper as the team stepped up from a regional southeast schedule to a full-time World of Outlaws program.

After 10 World of Outlaws races, Wilson recorded his first podium of the year at Hendry County Motorsports Park in February and followed that with back-to-back sixth-place finishes at Volunteer Speedway and Smoky Mountain Speedway. Those results, and Wilson’s ongoing work to dial into the new Big Frog/Viper program, indicate the driver/team relationship is beginning to click as they accumulate experience on the tour.

The early-season finishes left Wilson seventh in the World of Outlaws Late Model Series points standings and with a triple-digit lead in the MD3 Rookie of the Year standings. Big Frog/Viper has emphasized consistency as its priority and acknowledged the expected growing pains in stepping up to full-time national competition. Wilson, a native of Fayetteville, North Carolina, and the team will return to action when the series resumes at Magnolia Motor Speedway on March 20–21, 2026.
