🇺🇸 Boris Said

Boris Said is an American professional road course racing driver who has spent a decade competing primarily in Trans-Am touring car racing. Across 38 starts from 2017 to 2026, he has won four races and finished on the podium thirteen times, with an average finishing position of eighth. His Racer Rating of 4,445 places him in the upper-mid tier of a professional-level field. Said holds FIA Silver status, denoting a professional-level driver in sportscar and endurance racing.[1]

Trans-Am has been Said's primary focus, accounting for 27 of his 38 career starts and all four of his wins. He achieved one podium in four IMSA WeatherTech starts in 2017, racing for SunEnergy1 Racing alongside a much stronger roster. His ventures into NASCAR, comprising two Xfinity Series starts and one Cup Series appearance between 2021 and 2024, produced no podiums. Against his most frequent rivals in Trans-Am, Said has compiled a strong record; he beat Amy Ruman, a professional-level driver, in nineteen of twenty-four meetings, and finished ahead of David Pintaric in thirteen of eighteen races. However, he has been substantially outpaced by Chris Dyson, a four-time champion, finishing behind him in eighteen of twenty-six shared races. Said's head-to-head record against Tomy Drissi, another professional driver in endurance racing, is closely balanced at fourteen wins to ten losses across twenty-four races. In rare meetings with much stronger drivers competing in NASCAR, Said has beaten Kyle Larson, Chase Briscoe, Ty Gibbs, and Kurt Busch once each, though these represent isolated results rather than a pattern. His most recent activity came in 2026 Trans-Am competition.[2]
