INDIANAPOLIS — James Roe is an up-and-coming INDY NXT driver from a town in Ireland about 20 minutes outside of Dublin.
"I'm super happy to run the Notre Dame team's helmet here," Roe said."We have a massive opportunity here to merge fan bases together... and an Irish driver in the middle of it all was the perfect fit."He said the university took great care to make an authentic race-car version of the team's iconic golden football helmets.
"There's only one race track in the whole country, and I grew up two miles from it," Roe said."So, that's where my passion started."These days, Roe drives the No. 29 Topcon car for Andretti Global. He said he hopes to one day race in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES.
