Taylor Hagler

Taylor Hagler, born on October 4, 1995, is an accomplished American racing driver currently competing for Bryan Herta Autosport in the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge. Hagler's journey into motorsports began later in life, trading a decade of equestrian show jumping for horsepower in 2018. However, her passion for racing started much earlier, attending NASCAR races with her father since the age of six. Before dedicating herself fully to racing, she earned a BBA from the University of Texas at San Antonio.

Hagler quickly made a name for herself in the racing world. Starting in the NASA Texas Spec Miata Championship, she secured fifth place and Rookie of the Year honors in her debut season. This early success propelled her into the TC America Series in 2019, where she achieved multiple podium finishes. In 2021 and 2022, Hagler teamed up with Michael Lewis in the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge, driving a Hyundai Veloster N TCR and later a Hyundai Elantra N TCR for Bryan Herta Autosport. Together, they clinched back-to-back series championships, with Hagler becoming the first female champion in the series' history. Her consistent performance and ability to secure podium finishes have solidified her reputation as a formidable competitor.

Beyond her achievements in TCR racing, Hagler has also demonstrated her talent in GT racing, securing multiple class victories and podiums in the GT World Challenge America. Her diverse experience and consistent success across different racing series highlight her adaptability and skill as a driver. Off the track, Taylor is employed with an Aviation Maintenance Service company in San Antonio.
