We want Introl\u2019s first race to be memorable, both on and off the track, and hopefully serve as the beginning of a relationship that continues well beyond Gateway.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Introl, which cables AI factories around the world, is backing Ellis and the Mooresville, N.C. team at Madison, Ill., where the track sits across the Mississippi from St. Louis with the Gateway Arch in the sightline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pairing makes sense. Racing rewards precision at speed, and so does Introl\u2019s business.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company builds the physical layer of the largest GPU clusters in the world: the rail-optimized InfiniBand and Ethernet fabrics that let tens of thousands of GPUs train as a single machine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That means hundreds of thousands of 400G and 800G optics, MPO trunks, and structured fiber runs, every one of them landed to a documented port map with loss budgets and polarity that hold. At that scale, a marginal link is not a nuisance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A single optic with excess insertion loss or a flapping port can stall thousands of GPUs mid step, which is why the fabric has to be right before the first training job runs. Close enough isn\u2019t a standard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Introl\u2019s field technicians deploy the structured cabling, containment and GPU infrastructure that transforms an empty data hall into a running AI factory, and when the next generation of hardware arrives, they\u2019re the ones who tear it down and rebuild it on a timeline most people would call unreasonable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every AI cluster comes with a go live date that was promised to someone important. Introl is the reason that date holds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur entire business is showing up and delivering exactly what we promised, exactly when we promised it, which as it turns out is also the job description of a race team,\u201d said Introl founders and CEO Ryan Puckett.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRyan Ellis and Young\u2019s Motorsports run the way we like to work: precise, prepared and fast on purpose. We deploy the infrastructure behind the biggest AI buildouts in the world, where being off by a millimeter matters, so a sport where being off by a millisecond matters felt like home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ufeff\u201cWe\u2019re proud to be on the No. 02 Introl Chevrolet and we plan to enjoy every lap of it.\u201c<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the 2026 NASCAR O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts Series season entering its final stretch, Ellis will make his second career start at World Wide Technology Raceway in Saturday night\u2019s Nu Way 225 Sauced by Blues Hog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his Gateway debut last fall, the Ashburn, Va., native advanced 14 positions at the uniquely shaped 1.25-mile oval, finishing 18th after starting 32nd for DGM Racing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the season winding down, Young\u2019s Motorsports continues to invest considerable time and effort at its Mooresville, N.C., race shop to strengthen the No. 02 Chevrolet program.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ufeffBuilding on several encouraging performances, Ellis and the team will head to Gateway determined to translate that preparation into another competitive showing and contend for a top-10 finish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For team principal Tyler Young, the program\u2019s advancement reflects the collective dedication of an organization committed to improving through the final race of the season at Homestead-Miami (Fla.) Speedway in November.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA tremendous amount of work has gone into strengthening our No. 02 program, and I\u2019m proud of the commitment everyone at Young\u2019s Motorsports continues to demonstrate,\u201d offered Young. \u201cWhether we\u2019re at the shop or the racetrack, no one has stopped looking for ways to improve and find more speed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re encouraged by the progress, but we\u2019re not satisfied. Gateway gives us another opportunity to execute a complete race, compete for a top-10 finish and give everyone at Introl a NASCAR debut they can be proud of. We\u2019re determined to finish this season as strongly as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more on Ryan Ellis, please visit ryanellisracing.com, like him on Facebook (Ryan Ellis), and follow him on Instagram (@ryanellisracing), TikTok (@ryanellisracing), and X | Twitter (@ryanellisracing).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more on Young\u2019s Motorsports, please visit YoungsMotorsports.com, like them on Facebook (Young\u2019s Motorsports), and follow them on Instagram (@youngsmotorsports) and X |Twitter (@youngsmtrsports).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Nu Way 225 powered by Bobcat and Sauced by Blues Hog (180 laps | 225 miles) is the 26th of thirty-three (33) NASCAR O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts Series races on the 2026 schedule.
