Scott Lagasse
Scott Lagasse Sr. (pronounced LAG-a-say) (born February 20, 1957) is an American race team co-owner and former race car driver. As a driver, he competed in multiple series, most notably the NASCAR Winston Cup Series. Together with his son Scott Lagasse Jr., he currently owns TeamSLR (Scott Lagasse Racing).
TeamSLR began in 1985, operating out of a single-car garage and competing in a variety of motorsports disciplines. In 2016, the team's growing operation relocated to a 19,000-square-foot property on San Marco Avenue in St. Augustine called Art 'n Motion. From there the team focused on competing in the TA2 division of the Trans Am Series, where it has been a fixture ever since. Over the years, TeamSLR has accounted for more than 120 race wins and multiple championships.
The team specializes in driver development for road racing, specifically for those seeking to compete in NASCAR and other motorsports series. In 2025, TeamSLR became an Official Driver Development Partner of Chevrolet Motorsports.
Current young NASCAR driving talents who have worked with the Lagasses and raced for TeamSLR include Carson Kvapil, Sammy Smith, Connor Mosack, William Sawalich, Austin Green, Sam Mayer, Corey Day and Jack Wood. Other notable NASCAR personalities who have wheeled TeamSLR race cars include team owner and former driver Justin Marks, and current NASCAR Cup Series driver Daniel Suárez.
TeamSLR is also the builder of and exclusive distributor for M1 Racecars worldwide, and provides M1 customers with vital technical assistance and on-track feedback to support its performance development efforts.
Beginning in 1985, Lagasse became the first driver to earn Novice, Regional and National License all in the same season. More impressive was winning the SCCA National Championship in his very first season of racing. Scott went on the following season to capture the SCCA National Championship again as well as winning an SCCA PRO Title.
From there, Lagasse drove for various manufacturers including Chevrolet, Lotus and Pontiac where he compiled many wins. Lagesse's Sports Car tenure netted three National Titles, multiple International records as well as setting several world record speeds before moving on to stock car racing.
In 1995, Lagasse signed to drive the No. 24 Chevrolet Silverado for BSR Racing in the Craftsman Truck Series The first year team was owned by Billy Hess and Butch Stevens with sponsorship from DuPont. Scott posted seven top-ten finishes and finished ninth in points. Despite this, Dupont chose not to return and the program would move in house with Quaker State and Jack Sprague at the wheel. In 1996, Lagasse ran four races for Kevin Doran and did not record a top ten finish. His last attempt at a Truck race in 1998, for Marty Walsh, but failed to qualify.
