ROAHRIG & LEGACY AUTOSPORT TEAM UP FOR USAC SILVER CROWN RUN

Pittsboro, Indiana (June 30, 2022)………Legacy Autosport has confirmed its plans to compete with driver Tyler Roahrig on the USAC Silver Crown National Championship trail during the 2023 season.

Roahrig, of Plymouth, Ind., recently captured his second consecutive victory in the Little 500 at Anderson (Ind.) Speedway, a grueling 500-lap sprint car event on a quarter-mile paved oval.* Also a stock car racing phenom on the pavement, in August of 2021, Roahrig made one of the most successful USAC Silver Crown debuts, finishing 2nd at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.

The owner of Legacy Autosport, Louis Michael Meyer, is the great grandson of Louis Meyer, the first three-time winner of the Indianapolis 500 and the first to celebrate a 500 win with milk in victory lane.

Legacy Autosport recently announced their move up the Road to Indy ladder from USF200 and Indy Pro 2000 to Indy Lights. *They are also currently participating in the Midwest Throwback Sprint Car Series and plan to participate in the final USAC Silver Crown event of the 2022 season at IRP on October 22.

“It’s an exciting time at Legacy Autosport, with our New USAC Silver Crown program.” Said Meyer.* “I grew up around USAC racing and started my career working for Danny Drinan in the early 2000s. *I learned so much working for Danny, building some very advanced cars and I hope to bring that knowledge into this program. *I’m looking forward to our first race in a few months with our new Legacy chassis and a very fast and talented Tyler Roahrig behind the wheel.”

Roahrig relishes the opportunity to race for an experienced, but brand-new to Silver Crown racing team, which they hope will lead to them growing together and finding success together in USAC’s big cars.

“I am very honored and excited to drive for Legacy Autosport,” Roahrig exclaimed. *“They are a first class operation with the deepest roots in auto racing. *I look forward to getting back in a USAC Silver Crown car and working with them for the 2023 season.”
