Katherine Legge is heading back to Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and she’ll do it with a bold new look. The 44-year-old driver, who’s steadily gained respect in limited NASCAR Cup starts this season, unveiled her latest paint scheme ahead of her first-ever double-duty weekend in NASCAR’s National Series.
Set to run both the Xfinity and Cup races later this month at the Brickyard, Legge will once again drive the No. 78 Chevrolet Camaro for Live Fast Motorsports. The design features a sleek two-tone fade—bright green at the front, fading into a glossy black rear—and is backed by Desnuda Organic Tequila and Indiana-based DroplightHQ.
Key Highlights
Katherine Legge will run both the Xfinity and Cup races at Indianapolis, her first NASCAR double-duty weekend.
She’ll drive the No. 78 Chevrolet Camaro with backing from Droplight and Desnuda Organic Tequila.
The new paint scheme features a bold green-to-black gradient and has fans drawing comparisons to classic designs.
Legge becomes the second woman to enter the Brickyard 400, joining Danica Patrick.
Fan reaction has been widely positive, with praise for both the scheme and Legge’s on-track performance in 2025.
A Return to the Brickyard
For Legge, this weekend means more than just another race. It’s a return to the site of some of her most meaningful motorsports moments.
“It’s always an honor to drive at Indy, but having the chance to compete in both the Cup and Xfinity races thanks to Desnuda and Droplight is going to be epic.”
“After racing in the Indianapolis 500 in [2023 and 2024], I definitely felt a void not being there this year. But adding races to my schedule is exactly what I’ve been working toward – competing in as many events as possible and logging as many laps as I can. I’m incredibly thankful to Team Chevy and my partners at Desnuda, Droplight, and e.l.f. Cosmetics for making my return to the Brickyard extra special.” – Katherine Legge
After competing in the Indianapolis 500 in both 2023 and 2024, Legge missed the event this year—but her presence at the Brickyard remains strong. Her 2025 campaign with Live Fast has quietly turned heads, especially given the limited equipment she’s working with.

NASCAR Fans Praise the Scheme—and the Driver
Once the render dropped, fans wasted no time sharing their reactions—and most of it was praise.
“Not a bad scheme. Legge has actually been okay this season. Her finishing is comparable to BJ McLeod’s… She’s done pretty well in a shitbox.”
“Kinda reminds me of Kyle Larson’s Clover scheme he won Dover in.”
“Let’s go!!! Need it on a shirt.”
“Kyle Larson and Katherine Legge are both doing double duty in Xfinity and Cup.” – nascar fans’ reaction
The combination of a unique paint scheme, strong sponsor support, and a respected name returning to a major track has fans watching closely—and pulling for Legge to put together another solid weekend.
