Team Pelfrey purchased 8 Star Motorsports and entered two cars in the 2016 Indy Lights series.[6][24] Felix Rosenqvist tested with the team at Palm Beach International Raceway, but would later sign with Belardi Auto Racing.[24][25][26] Juan Piedrahita became the team's full-time driver, with Scott Hargrove running several races.[27][28] Garett Grist moved up from Pro Mazda for the road course races starting at Road America, replacing Hargrove.[29] Piedrahita left the team after Toronto and Sean Rayhall joined for Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.[30][31]
Juan Piedrahita rejoined Team Pelfrey for the 2017 Indy Lights season.[32] Patricio O'Ward joined the team for St. Petersburg and finished third in race two.[33][34][35] Piedrahita won the pole at Gateway and finished 2nd.[36][37]
