CR7 Motorsports Bio
CR7 Motorsports is an American professional stock car racing team founded in 2014. The team fields Chevrolet racecars across NASCAR and ARCA competition and is owned by Codie Rohrbaugh, Thomas Rohrbaugh, and Larry Berg.
Early Life and Background
CR7 Motorsports began as a family-run effort tied to the Rohrbaugh racing program, entering regional stock car competition in 2014. The organization first appeared in what was then the K&N Pro Series East, leveraging a small stable of equipment and a focus on development for young drivers and owner-drivers.
In its formative years the team ran under a mix of car numbers and manufacturers as it established operations and learned the logistics of national touring competition. The owners maintained hands-on roles while expanding entries into ARCA and later the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series as the organization matured.
Path to MotorSports
CR7 Motorsports stepped onto the ARCA Menards Series stage in 2016 and used the regional K&N/ARCA ladder to develop personnel and equipment. The team ran occasional East Series events beginning in 2014 and increased ARCA participation in 2016 while building relationships with drivers who would appear across series for the organization.
By 2018 CR7 took the next step into the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, marking a transition to a national touring series and consistent competition at larger tracks. That move reflected the team’s strategic progression from regional starts to a full-time presence in one of NASCAR’s primary national divisions.
CR7 Motorsports Career
Early Career (2014–2017)
CR7 Motorsports opened competition in 2014 in the K&N Pro Series East with the No. 05 entry and attracted modest results while focusing on gaining experience. The team made its ARCA debut in 2016, running late-season events while continuing to contest select East Series races the prior two seasons.
During this period the organization established its usage of Chevrolet equipment in many races and learned the demands of longer national schedules. The early years produced steady development of crew, equipment, and race operations that would underpin later national entries.
NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Breakthrough (2018–2024)
CR7 Motorsports debuted in the Truck Series in 2018 at the UNOH 200 at Bristol and registered top-twenty finishes in initial outings as the team adapted to the series. The Truck program expanded gradually, with Codie Rohrbaugh, and later other drivers stepping into the No. 9 and No. 97 trucks as the team balanced part-time and full-time efforts.
The organization’s most consequential season arrived in 2024 after signing veteran Grant Enfinger to drive the No. 9 Chevrolet Silverado full-time under a multi-year agreement. Enfinger’s run produced the team’s first two Truck Series victories — a breakthrough win at Talladega and a follow-up win at Homestead — and delivered CR7 Motorsports its first berth in the Championship 4.
ARCA Menards Series Presence (2016–Present)
CR7 Motorsports has maintained a sustained ARCA Menards Series program alongside its Truck efforts, entering the ARCA national and regional events with part-time and occasional full-time lineups. The team debuted in ARCA competition at Kentucky in 2016 and later fielded the No. 97 Chevrolet for drivers including Jason Kitzmiller in multiple seasons.
The ARCA program has served as a development ground for drivers who also appear in NASCAR Truck entries and for the team to refine setups and personnel across a variety of tracks. CR7’s ARCA participation has included combined events with the East Series and select West Series appearances as part of a diversified program strategy.
CR7 Motorsports Era (2018–Present)
Since expanding into the Truck Series in 2018, CR7 Motorsports has grown into a consistent presence on the national stage while continuing ARCA engagements. The team’s operations include multiple car numbers — notably Nos. 9 and 97 — and a stable of part-time drivers that complement its full-time entries.
The multi-year Chevrolet partnership and a family ownership structure have helped stabilize the program through driver changes and schedule expansions. By the mid-2020s CR7 became better known for speedway performance and for fielding experienced Cup-series veterans and rising talents in its entries.
Driving Style and Strengths
CR7 Motorsports has shown particular strength on superspeedways and in managing multi-car efforts during high-speed races, culminating in wins at Talladega and Homestead. The team emphasizes racecraft, drafting strategy, and consistency that has translated into regular top-five and top-ten finishes in key events.
Notable Events and Milestones
Key milestones for CR7 Motorsports include the team’s Truck Series debut at Bristol in 2018, its first top-ten finishes in the Truck ranks, and the breakthrough in 2024 when Grant Enfinger secured the organization’s first two Truck Series victories and a place in the Championship 4. Across ARCA and Truck competition the team has reached more than 250 combined race starts.
CR7 Motorsports Career Wins
CR7 Motorsports’ verified race victories to date are concentrated in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, where the team has recorded two wins. Those victories stand as defining moments in the club’s national competition history and signal the team’s capability to contend at the highest level of its chosen divisions.
NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Highlights
The team’s first Truck Series win came in 2024 at Talladega Superspeedway, where strategic drafting and late-race positioning delivered a breakthrough victory. That triumph was followed later in the season by a second win at Homestead, which, together with consistent top-five and top-ten finishes, enabled a Championship 4 appearance for the No. 9 entry.
Across its Truck Series tenure the organization has run the No. 9 as its primary entry and has also fielded a second truck, the No. 97, on a part-time basis. The Truck program accounts for the team’s two national series victories and the majority of its national-level starts.
Other Wins & Perfromances
In ARCA Menards Series competition CR7 Motorsports has run a range of part-time and development programs without recording a national ARCA victory. The ARCA entries have nonetheless produced solid finishes and valuable seat time for drivers who later competed in the Truck Series for the team.
