Derby are still without a home win after Ollie Rathbone scored late on to earn Wrexham a 1-1 draw at Pride Park.
The Rams were on course for victory through Sam Szmodics' superb early strike only for the Welsh side to rescue a point two minutes from the end.
Both teams created chances in an open game, but the finishing lacked the quality Szmodics showed when he beat Anthony Patterson with an unstoppable shot.
It looked like it was going to be a frustrating afternoon for Wrexham until Kieffer Moore set up Rathbone for a close-range finish to leave Derby still waiting for that elusive home victory.
Derby had started positively and deservedly went ahead in the ninth minute following a clinical counter-attack.
Mo Fuseini sprinted from deep inside his own half to release Szmodics, who cut inside before unleashing a rising drive past Patterson.
The Dragons responded through Jacques Ekomie, who ran into the Derby box and fired in a low shot which Josh Vickers did well to palm away.
Vickers rescued Derby again when Callum O'Hare's shot took a deflection, forcing the goalkeeper into a reflex save and Issa Kabore put the rebound into the side-netting.
Szmodics was close to a second in the 35th minute when he pounced on a loose ball and curled a shot just wide of Patterson's left post.
The first half ended with the visitors catching the Rams on the break, but O'Hare's shot was deflected over for a corner which came to nothing.
Fuseini's pace had caused problems from the start and the winger made another run at the Wrexham defence in the 58th minute, but his shot was straight at Patterson.
The away side had got into good positions without making them count and Danny Imray wasted another chance with an overhit cross before Carlton Morris fired over at the other end.
Wrexham had a good effort to level in the 75th minute when O'Hare found space, but blazed over from 12 yards.
Derby almost made them pay with Bobby Clark getting in on the Wrexham right and hitting a low shot which was deflected narrowly wide.
After the home survived a scramble inside the six-yard box, Ekomie lashed a shot over and they were heading for defeat until Rathbone came to the rescue in the 88th minute.
The Rams had defended strongly throughout but when Imray crossed from the right, Moore rose to head the ball down and Rathbone nipped in to beat Vickers.
Derby's John Eustace:
"I thought we were excellent. I thought we deserved all three points and limited an excellent team to next to nothing really.
"We started the game really well, scored a fantastic goal and defensively we looked very very solid, but unfortunately we just couldn't see it through.
"We had some really good chances in the second half to put the game to bed, but when you're playing against Kieffer Moore you've got to defend for 95 minutes and one long ball came in at the end which we just couldn't defend properly, which is a shame, but over the course of the game I thought we were excellent.
"The lads are obviously really disappointed and they're down after conceding so late, but I'm sure when they go home and reflect on the match they will be very positive and very proud of the effort they put in against a top team at this level who I'm sure will finish in the top eight.
"To go about our business as we did today is very pleasing and I'm just really disappointed that we didn't win the game."
Wrexham's Phil Parkinson:
"I thought we chipped away in the first half. We had some good spells and in the second half, Derby sat off the ball and were happy to soak up pressure and play on the counter.
"We were patient and we just couldn't find the killer pass, but when we did we got the goal back with a brilliant cross from Danny (Imray), an outstanding striker's header back across goal and Ollie Rathbone does what he's done so many times for us.
"We've had some disruption this week with a few things that have conspired against us in the build-up, but I felt the lads showed good character today to keep chipping away and when you get injuries that's what the squad is for.
"Players stepped up today and we'll take the point, you always want three, but to be fair Derby were fighting tooth and nail. They finished in the top half last year, they've got a good team with some decent players and a point away from home is never to be devalued."
