Steven Scott| Class of 2019

January 20, 2026 update

Steven Scott entered the racing world through NXG Youth Motorsports. After driving for more than three years, he transitioned to the tech side of racing. As an NXG intern, Steven learned to manage timing and scoring equipment and traveled to major race events, including Road America, Toronto, and the Indy 500, supporting teams as they tracked performance and refined race strategy.

This January, Steven interned with INDYCAR’s head software engineer, developing a program to collect, graph, and report tire‑performance data for Firestone Live. He is finishing his sophomore year at Franklin College, studying software engineering, and will work part‑time for INDYCAR this summer.

Often the youngest person working the track, Steven values the habits of respect and reverence he learned early on, especially as he interacts with adults much older than himself. “When I get up every day, it’s just a lifestyle. The Oaks taught me how to reflect and give reverence,” said Steven. “The Oaks gave me a strong, solid base, and I have been able to build off of that.”
