Jon Fogarty (born May 23, 1975 in Palo Alto, California) is an American professional auto racing driver . Fogarty currently drives the No. 99 GAINSCO Auto Insurance Daytona Prototype for GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing in the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series. He won his first Grand-Am race, the 2007 Mexico City 400k, in March 2007. He and co-driver Alex Gurney captured the 2007 Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series Daytona Prototype drivers' championship.

Fogarty competed in the Barber Dodge Pro Series from 1996 until 2000, finishing series runner-up twice. Following a year where he was injured in Indy Lights in 2001, he moved into Toyota Atlantic in 2002 and edged Michael Valiante for the series championship. He was unsuccessful in a bid to find a Champ Car ride for 2003 and came back to foster rookie Danica Patrick's growth the last two races, whereupon she scored her best result of 2nd in Miami while he posted a pair of 4ths.

In 2004 he returned to full-time Atlantic competition and won another title, this time beating Ryan Dalziel. After an unsuccessful search for a Champ Car ride, Fogarty moved into sports car racing, driving a Porsche 911 in the GT class of the American Le Mans Series. In April 2006, Fogarty moved to the Grand-Am series, driving the No. 99 GAINSCO Auto Insurance Pontiac Riley with Alex Gurney. The pairing combined for a series-record seven wins and ten poles in 2007, with Fogarty claiming a series-record eight of those. Again driving a Pontiac Riley, Fogarty and Gurney finished the 2008 season in second place.
