Maynard Troyer (November 22, 1938 - May 10, 2018 ) is a former NASCAR driver from Spencerport, NY. He competed in fourteen Nextel Cup Series events in his career, earning three top-tens.
All but one of Troyer's starts came during the 1971 season, when he finished 38th in points. Troyer didn't waste any time getting going, debuting in the Daytona 500 Qualifier event (then a points race). Starting 11th in the field of thirty-one, Troyer completed all but one lap and his marvelous eighth place finish allowed him to transfer into the Daytona 500. But the 500 started a bit of a tough streak for Troyer, only finishing one of his next five races. That rough spot ended in a perfect time for Troyer, who finished 14th or better in three straight races. During that time, Troyer had an 8th place run at Trenton and a career-best 4th place effort at Michigan. But once again a great run began a downward spiral, as Troyer finished no better than 28th in his final four starts of the year.
Troyer's final race came in the 1973 season, and it turned out to be a mix of Troyer's previous successes and struggles. Starting 21st in the grand Daytona 500, Troyer had an engine let go late, but still managed to finish a respectable 23rd.
