The team is notable for running female driver Katherine Legge during the 2005 season, who became the first woman to win a developmental open-wheel race in North America when she won the season’s first race at Long Beach.
The team won the revived SCCA 2012 Atlantic Championship, with Memphis-area homebuilder David Grant winning the first of the revived series.
