History
The following section is an excerpt from Wikipedia's Dreyer & Reinbold Racing page on 17 June 2019, text available via the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
Dreyer & Reinbold Racing is an automotive racing organization currently competing in the open wheel IndyCar Series and in the Americas Rallycross Championship. The team is owned by Indianapolis BMW, Infiniti, Volkswagen and Maserati dealer Dennis Reinbold. Off the track, Dreyer & Reinbold Racing (DRR) have spent thousands of hours as the national spokesperson & advocate for "Racing for Kids," a national youth charitable foundation. On behalf of "Racing for Kids," DRR has visited more than 20,000 children in over 400 hospitals worldwide, and raised nearly $5 million for local children's health initiatives.
After the 2013 Indianapolis 500, the team cut its staff and pulled out of IndyCar competition due to losing its primary sponsorship. The team made its return in the 2014 Indianapolis 500 with the help of Kingdom Racing with driver Sage Karam. Despite starting 31st, Karam would finish 9th. Townsend Bell was the Dreyer & Reinbold Kingdom Racing driver in the 2015 Indianapolis 500, finishing 14th. Sage Karam returned for the 2016 Indianapolis 500, crashing midway through the race.
In 2017, Karam drove for Dreyer & Reinbold Kingdom Racing at the Indianapolis 500, retiring with mechanical problemas. In addition, Reinbold became a technical partner of Harding Racing, who entered Gabby Chaves at the three 500 milers.
