In a landmark transaction for North America’s premier open-wheel racing series, Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL) announced today that it has sold one of its three IndyCar charters to Dreyer & Reinbold Racing (DRR). The agreement, which is subject to official IndyCar approval, clears the way for DRR to return to full-time competition with a single-car entry beginning in the 2027 season.
The sale marks the first official transfer of an IndyCar charter since the system was introduced in late 2024, when 25 charters were distributed to full-season teams to create immediate asset value and establish a long-term growth structure for team owners.
