Dreyer and Reinbold Racing will return to full-time IndyCar Series competition in 2027, signing veteran driver Conor Daly to pilot the No. 24 entry. The team finalized the deal after acquiring a charter from Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing earlier this summer. This move marks the team's first full-season participation since 2012. Daly, who previously raced for the team in two Indianapolis 500 appearances, joins the organization after competing for Juncos Hollinger Racing during the 2025 season. The team also announced a new partnership with Honda to supply engines for the upcoming campaign. Leadership duties for the team are currently handled by Derek Reinbold, Brett DeBord, and Chase Selman following the death of founder Dennis Reinbold in June.
