Robert Earl Schacht (born January 24, 1950) is an American stock car racing driver. Now retired, he is a native of Lombard, Illinois. He competed in 26 NASCAR events between 1981 and 1997 in the Winston Cup, Busch Series, and Craftsman Truck Series. He had no top-ten finishes in NASCAR; he is best known for his ARCA career, where he has collected seventeen wins. After his retirement as a driver in ARCA following the 2016 season, he continued to field his No. 75 car for other drivers. He returned to the series as a driver in 2023 at Mid-Ohio.

Schacht is married to Patty Simko, a fellow racing driver.

In 2022, Schacht and wife Patty created the Grand National Super Series Presented By ECC, a tour featuring old Pro Cup cars, ARCA Menards Series cars, and a variety of other full bodied stock cars.
