🇺🇸 Brian Cross

Brian Cross is a club-level driver racing in national amateur and semi-professional multiclass championships. He competes primarily in NASA's Spec Miata class, driving a Mazda MX-5 in spec trim, and has made occasional starts in SCCA Regionals' SMT class, the same car format. His main operation is with Mazda Miata, a team fielding 89 drivers across the indexed record.[1]

Cross has accumulated 112 starts across seven seasons from 2020 to 2026. His six podiums have come mostly in NASA, where he has competed in 96 starts, with two additional podiums from 16 SCCA Regionals starts. His most recent activity in 2026 saw him finish 30th in the SCCA Regionals championship standings after scoring two podiums across the rounds run to date. He typically finishes ahead of fellow developing drivers who race the same formula regularly, including Tony Senese and Laura Braverman, both established opponents in his field.[2]

The strongest competitor Cross has beaten is Kyle Kaiser, a professional and 2017 Indy NXT champion with experience across Indy NXT, Pro Mazda and IndyCar; Cross finished ahead of him once. He has also beaten Aaron Jeansonne, a FIA Silver professional with 56 Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup starts and 22 Porsche Carrera Cup NA starts, three times across their meetings. In fields where both amateur and graded professional drivers share the track, Cross runs in the mid-field and lower standings typical of developing competitors.
