Exciting news for racing enthusiasts: Chris Windom is gearing up for an exhilarating rookie season in the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars in 2025. This talented driver from Canton, IL has officially teamed up with Sides Motorsports to take the wheel of the legendary No. 7S car. With aspirations to capture the prestigious Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year title next season, Windom is bringing his partnership with NOS Energy Drink to this new venture. He joins fellow rookie Cole Macedo, making the 2025 rookie class an exciting one to watch.

Windom’s impressive career is highlighted by a significant milestone he achieved in 2020, when he became the seventh member of the esteemed USAC Triple Crown club. He clinched a National Midget championship, adding to his accolades that include the Silver Crown title in 2016 and the National Sprint Car championship in 2017. This diverse experience has laid a strong foundation for his transition to winged Sprint Car racing, which he has passionately pursued in recent years.

In the 2023 season, Windom showcased his skills by finishing second in the All-Star Circuit of Champions standings, demonstrating his competitiveness by nearly clinching a Feature victory on multiple occasions. His consistent performance, including three second-place finishes, has prepared him for the ultimate challenge in Sprint Car racing as he steps into The Greatest Show on Dirt.

Windom will benefit from the guidance of veteran driver Jason Sides, who brings a wealth of experience to the team.
