Legge, 44, is the only female driver competing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series' BetMGM 300 event on May 24. The party, held at Folia in Charlotte, North Carolina, was co-hosted by PEOPLE's Dory Jackson and NASCAR host Carla Metts.

Thanks to e.l.f. Cosmetics, guests got to take cute photos in a PEOPLE-inspired photo booth. They also snacked on an array of small bites, from shrimp to empanadas, and sipped on drinks from the open bar.

There was also a charm bracelet and necklace-making station, courtesy of The Link Lab.

Guests left the party with some e.l.f. swag, including e.l.f.'s Power Grip Primer and e.l.f.'s Suntouchable Invisi-Stick SPF 50.

Legge had some starry names in attendance to help her celebrate the special occasion. Yellowstone alum Kelsey Asbille, The Summer I Turned Pretty's Rain Spencer, and journalist Alicia Quarles were present for the gathering.

Barstool personalities Kelly Trotta, Maddie Schrader, and Rae Reichert were there for the day, taking photos "behind the wheel" in e.l.f.'s racecar-themed photobooth. Additionally, several NFL cheerleaders made their way down as well.

After being properly introduced by the event's co-hosts, as well as Patrick O'Keefe, e.l.f. Cosmetics Chief, Integrated Marketing Officer, Legge addressed the attendees with an inspiring message.

"I feel quite emotional now. Tear in my eye," Legge said as she greeted guests. "Honestly, super, super grateful and super proud to be here and to represent e.l.f. and to chat with all the wonderful PEOPLE people. It is a big weekend for us, it's a big year for us, and when e.l.f. says that they stand for empowering women, like, that is no s---, people."

Legge noted that she is "beyond grateful and beyond proud to represent e.l.f. and to have met so many amazing humans."

"I think that this only happens once in your lifetime and so it's my responsibility to do you all proud and so I am giving you 110%. I am trying my best, y'all. Like, I am not watching races from last year and, I will absolutely try and represent you the very best that I can. I got this!"
