2026 Stafford Speedway Driver Preview: Wayne Coury, Jr.
Wayne Coury, Jr., #10 Springfield Thunderbirds Late Model
Experience: 20 seasons in Stafford’s Late Model division; 9 full, 11 partial
2025 stats: 7th in Late Model points; 2 wins, 9 top-5’s, 11 top-10’s, avg finish 7.0
2026 outlook: The Late Model veteran turned in another solid season last year. He matched career highs in wins with 2 and top-5 finishes with 9 and 2025 was the third season of his Stafford career that saw him win multiple feature events. Coury and the #10 team were quick every Friday night, but they encountered five finishes of 13th or worse during the season. Coury will no doubt be in the mix for wins on a weekly basis in 2026 and if he and his team can eliminate their unfortunate nights, he could be a solid championship contender and either match or surpass his career best finish of 2nd place in the standings, which came back in 2023.
