Alex Mercado is a club-level driver, placing at the 1,886 rating; this level represents competitive amateur racing in regional and club fields, distinct from the professional categories above it. Mercado's record spans three seasons from 2021 to 2023 in the SKUSA SuperNationals, a karting championship, across six starts with no wins or podium finishes. The driver averaged a finishing position of 19th across classified results, indicating consistent mid-field or back-marker performance in the fields entered.[1]
Mercado's head-to-head record against fellow competitors reflects the level of racing. Against Max Taylor, a professional-grade driver and 2024 USF Juniors champion, Mercado finished behind in all three shared races. The same pattern held against Steven Miller and two other rivals rated above the semi-professional threshold. Mercado did finish ahead of Jackson Wolny once in three races and ahead of competitors at or near their own rating on isolated occasions. Among the notable results on file, Mercado beat FIA Silver graded drivers Cole Kleck and Hudson Schwartz once each, and bested Daniel Quimby, the 2024 US F4 champion, in a single outing; these were one-off results against stronger drivers rather than patterns of consistent outperformance.[2]
The driver has now retired from active competition.
