Lebron said, “Our goal is to impact all forms of motorsports worldwide. E2 supports Black and Latino driver; two being Harville- Lebron’s son, Enico and Eric.”
To be the first Black woman to own a Nascar team is an amazing accomplishment. About the future she said, “It’s important for our culture to push generational wealth to our children. It’s important to lead by example. All too often our children see negative images of our culture and I think it’s very important for people of our culture actually succeeding in business,”
