🇺🇸 Eric Foss

Eric Foss is a Silver-graded sportscar professional with a Racer Rating of 3,944, placing him in the professional tier; he competes primarily in endurance and one-make racing where he is a steady front-field driver but not a consistent race winner at the national level. His career has been built almost entirely on IMSA Pilot Challenge competition for Murillo Racing across eight seasons from 2016 to 2023, during which he took 7 wins and 15 podiums from 74 starts. In 2017 he won the Pilot Challenge ST championship. His average finishing position of P7.2 across all classified races reflects a career spent racing in the midfield on his best days and sliding back into the field on others; he is competitive but not dominant.[1]

The head-to-head records against his most frequent rivals tell a mixed story. Foss holds a winning record against Tim Probert and Robin Liddell, both Silver-graded professionals, and finished ahead of Spencer Pumpelly, the 2016 Pilot Challenge ST champion, in 22 of 55 meetings. Against Gregory Liefooghe and Chad Mccumbee, both Silver drivers of similar calibre to himself, he has also compiled winning records. He trails Owen Trinkler, a Bronze amateur and 2018 Pilot Challenge GS champion, in their 66 shared races. His record against much stronger drivers is sparse; he has beaten Chase Briscoe, an elite professional, seven times across their encounters, but this reflects their different career trajectories and series rather than a consistent pattern. Foss is a professional-level competitor in endurance racing, not an elite one.

Recent activity shows Foss in 2025 expanding beyond his long Murillo Racing tenure, with starts in the Porsche Endurance Challenge and International GT yielding no wins, but he scored a victory and podium in a single Trans-Am round, finishing ninth in that series' standings. The shift toward new series at this stage of his career suggests a move toward other opportunities rather than sustained competition.
