Matt Wallace (racing driver)

He is a member of the Wallace family, which includes his father Mike and uncles Rusty and Kenny, each former NASCAR drivers who successfully competed in the sport for decades.

However, Wallace's crew chief Paul Andrews did state that Cunningham would try to field an additional car for him at Daytona if sponsorship could be found[4] (and it was not).

Although he made his debut in the series in 2015, Matt Wallace did have a chance to do so one season earlier, as at the Daytona night race in 2014.

His father Mike and late model car builder Robert Hamke assisted Matt in this effort.

[8] He grew up in the Charlotte, North Carolina area (where the majority of race teams are based) although his family is from St. Louis.
