GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • RILEY PEGRAM secured her second consecutive top-ten finish, bringing the #72 Pegram Racing Hyundai home in tenth at Laguna Seca after starting 15th. She’s proving that consistency pays off in IMSA’s ultra-competitive TCR field, building momentum from her breakthrough ninth-place result at Sebring.
  • The family-run operation showed smart race management as RILEY handled qualifying duties and the opening stint, maintaining clean racing through multiple cautions before handing off to father Larry Pegram. Their strategy of staying out of trouble while picking up positions when opportunities presented themselves paid dividends in a chaotic race that saw several frontrunners encounter problems.
  • PEGRAM’s steady development continues to impress as she transitions from a partial 2024 campaign to a full-season effort in 2025. Between IMSA rounds, she’s gaining valuable seat time in World Racing League events, showing the kind of commitment that separates weekend warriors from serious competitors building toward long-term success in professional motorsports.

UPCOMING:

  • Mid-Ohio four-hour endurance race – June 6-8
