Chris Kopley is an active amateur racer competing in the SCCA Runoffs, a club-level single-seater championship. Across five seasons from 2021 to 2025, Kopley has made five starts without recording a win or podium finish, averaging eighth place. His Racer Rating of 1,284 places him in the amateur ranks, reflecting competition primarily against drivers of similar standing.[1]
Kopley's record against his most frequent rivals shows mixed results. He has finished ahead of Michael Lewis, an FIA Gold graded professional and three-time champion, in three of five shared races; this stands as his most notable achievement across a limited career. Against other competitors in his field, Kopley trails significantly, notably posting a 0-4 record against Graham Fuller and 0-3 records against Chris Bovis, Peter Shadowen, and Brian Linn. His head-to-head against James Gregorius stands at 1-3.
The limited sample size and absence of podium finishes indicate Kopley remains at the periphery of competitive racing at this level. His occasional success against stronger drivers, particularly Lewis, suggests he is capable of competitive performances; however, the pattern of his results across five years shows he has not yet established consistency among club-level fields.
