🏳️ Brendan Shattles

Brendan Shattles is a developing driver racing in NASA, a multiclass national championship that runs solo sprint racing across fifteen classes on the same grid. He drives a Mazda MX-5 Miata in the Spec Miata class and competes in Super Touring 5 with production street cars. His primary machinery is the Miata, which accounts for 59 of his 71 starts.[1]

Shattles has completed eight seasons with NASA since 2019, moving between the Spec Miata and Super Touring 5 classes. In 2026, his current season, he sits 41st in the championship standings with four rounds completed; more races remain on the calendar. Across his career he has finished ahead of entry-level professionals including Kamden Hibbitt twice and Pete McIntosh once, though these stand as occasional results rather than a pattern.[2]

His regular competition comes from club-level drivers who have logged significantly more starts; Don Elvington, with 188 NASA races on record, and Bayani Dia, with 224, are opponents he meets frequently and typically finishes behind. The Miata field he races in has produced strong drivers, among them Gar Robinson, an established professional fielded by the same team organisation that has generated over 1,200 race wins across the broader grid.
