Ty Majeski (born August 18, 1994) is an American professional driver. He currently races part-time in the ARCA Racing Series, driving the No. 99 Ford Fusion for Cunningham Motorsports. He started his racing career on dirt karts near his home. Majeski later moved up to racing late models on asphalt, and then began racing in touring series and was the champion of the ARCA Midwest Tour in 2014, 2015, and 2016 while winning the series' 2014 Rookie of the Year award.

Majeski is a member of the 2016 NASCAR Next class, and a development driver for Roush Fenway Racing. He is scheduled to race in at least two NASCAR Xfinity Series races for Roush Fenway in 2017.

Majeski began racing as a nine-year-old on dirt karts in 2004 at Hi-Go Raceway. Majeski's first win came on his tenth birthday. In his first eight races, he had won three features. He eventually was racing at several different tracks in his home area: GSR Kartway near Clintonville, Wisconsin, Hi-Go Raceway in Cecil, Wisconsin and Meadowview Kartway by Hilbert, Wisconsin. Between 2005 and 2009, he had won five track titles and 84 features. By the time that he was 15 year old, he had won a national championship in the Mid-American National Series. In karting, he had won six national championships, three state championships, and five track titles. In 2009, Majeski took second overall in the National Indoor Championship at Batesville, Mississippi; he won three of five events which caught the attention of Bobby Waltrip, the brother of Darrell and Michael Waltrip. In 2009, Waltrip arranged for Majeski to test an asphalt late model at Hickory Motor Speedway. After Majeski got used to driving the car, he was posting lap times quicker that the driver and Waltrip wanted Majeski to move to North Carolina for the 2009 racing season but his family didn't want to move.
