Pete Orr (racing driver)

Charles "Pete" Orr (29 July 1956 to 18 November 2002) was an American stock car racing driver from Miami who lived for many years in Montverde, Florida. Regarded as a superstar of Florida late model competition, he raced mainly at the lower levels but made a brief NASCAR Busch Series career of six starts across 1995 and 1996 for David Ridling's team. He won the FASCAR Triple Crown Series in 1991 and took the Orange Blossom 100 at New Smyrna Speedway four times, and he scored more than 300 wins in racing overall. He retired in 2001 and died of lymphoma in 2002. Insurance claims worth over $250,000 that he was refused led Florida to pass the Pete Orr Insurance Anti-Fraud Act.
