Ron "Ronnie" Silk (born February 17, 1983) is an American professional stock car racing driver who competes full-time in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, driving the No. 16 for Haydt Yannone Racing. He is the godson of two time NASCAR Xfinity Series champion Randy Lajoie.

Silk is long-time competitor of the series, having made his debut in 2003, and has since won two championships in 2011 and 2023.[1]

Silk got his start in go karts before moving into the SK Modified division at Stafford Motor Speedway, Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park, and the Waterford Speedbowl, winning multiple races at all 3 tracks driving his family owned 83 car, as well as driving the 85 for Bob Horn.

Silk has also competed in the now defunct NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour, as well as the Modified Racing Series, the Tri-Track Open Modified Series, and the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing.[2]
