Noah Gragson has been following the darts scene amid the NASCAR off-season. His latest effort was reposting Stephen Bunting's legendary entrance on social media.
Gragson is a 26-year-old American professional stock car racing driver bound for Front Row Motorsports. He signed with FRM following a one-year stint with Stewart-Haas Racing, a NASCAR team that ceased operations after 2024.
In an Instagram post, Noah Gragson reshared Stephen Bunting's walk-on in his stories.
"Hey Siri.. define AURA," the post read.
Stephen Bunting, nicknamed "The Bullet", is considered one of the best darts players in the world. Currently ranked world No. 5, the multi-championship English darts player is a fan favorite known for his walk-ons to the song Titanium by David Guetta.
Gragson later shared an IG story of him holding up three darts.
"Dart king," Gragson's story read.
This follows Noah Gragson's IG story on Luke Littler's performance in the 2025 World Darts Championship. He commended the young English darts player, who defeated his opponent Ian White 4-1 at Alexandra Palace in the United Kingdom last month.

"Luke the nuke."
Noah Gragson will be back behind the wheel next month for the 2025 Cup Series season. Driving the No. 4 FRM Ford Mustang, Gragson's season will begin at the Cook Out Clash on February 2 before the season-opening Daytona 500 race two weeks later.
The Las Vegas native will team up with Todd Gilliland (No. 34) and Zane Smith (No. 38).
Noah Gragson shared his thoughts on reuniting with Todd Gilliland in 2025
Noah Gragson recently swapped helmets with Front Row Motorsports teammate Todd Gilliland. In an Instagram post, Gragson expressed feeling "pumped" reuniting with Gilliland, though he took the chance to apologize.
The Ford pilot said:
"Been through a lot of ups and downs with this guy! Pumped to trade helmets with @toddgilliland_ now that we're teammates again🔥 cheers to the helmet swap 🤝 also... sorry about Canada🙃"
Perhaps Gragson was referring to the last-lap incident with Gilliland in Canada in 2018. The then-teammates made contact in the final corner and spun out the top two finishing positions, allowing Justin Haley to take the lead and win the race.
Gragson also talked about the adjustment to becoming teammates with Gilliland again. He said (via NASCAR.com):
"I think Todd’s done an unbelievable job throughout his career and building his brand and the driver that he’s become. So I think we can work together really well next year. We’re good buddies, which helps. We know each other. We’ve been teammates before. I think it’ll be a very easy transition."
The two will compete alongside Zane Smith who will drive the No. 38 Ford acquired from Stewart-Haas Racing. Smith last drove the No. 71 Chevrolet Camaro for Spire Motorsports under a loan contract from Trackhouse Racing.
Front Row Motorsports is set to become among the youngest teams in the 2025 season.
