The team returned to competition in 2015, and currently competes full-time in the USAC Silver Crown Series with driver Justin Grant.
Hemelgarn teamed up with Dale Coyne Racing to field a car at Road America and Toronto for Lazier in 1991.
Indy legend Gordon Johncock, veteran Stan Fox, and Buddy Lazier, who made the race for the first time.
With the founding of the Indy Racing League in 1996, the team was eager to return to full-time racing and re-signed former Hemelgarn stalwart Buddy Lazier to pilot their full-time entry and fielded additional cars for Brad Murphey and Stéphan Grégoire in the Indy 500.
Buddy Lazier scored the team's first pole position at the 1996 IRL season opener at Walt Disney World Speedway.
Lazier scored the first win of his Indy car career and Hemelgarn's first as a team in a gutsy drive while recovering from a back injury in the 1996 Indianapolis 500.
In 2005 the team returned to full-time competition with new ethanol sponsorship brought by driver Paul Dana who was injured after three races and replaced by Jimmy Kite.
The team was able to broker a deal with driver P. J. Chesson, with financial backing from NBA star Carmelo Anthony.
Following the devastating result, Ron Hemelgarn let his crew go and suspended the team's operations, leaving Chesson without a ride for the rest of the year.
Little was heard of the entry until a deal was put together on the Friday before the final weekend of qualifying with Racing Professionals to jointly field a former Hemelgarn chassis (bought by RP) for Richie Hearn.
Hearn solidly put the car in the field after only 26 laps of practice on Bump Day and finished the race in the 23rd position.
In 2008 Buddy Lazier returned to the team for the Indianapolis 500 and made a last minute run on Bump Day to put the car into the field.
