Ernie Jakubows holds a Racer Rating of 1,117, placing him in the developing category; this represents a driver at the entry level of competitive racing with very limited experience on record. Jakubows raced in a single season in 2008, competing in NASA with Mantis Sport, Mobil 1, and Gunk. Across his two recorded starts, he won once and finished on the podium in both races, posting an average finishing position of first. His only season saw him finish 23rd in the final standings.[1]
The competitive context of Jakubows' brief record shows him defeating drivers of modest experience and rating, including Brant Giere, Christian Cook, Charles Mason, and Mike Mallais on multiple occasions. However, with only two races on record, the sample is too small to establish meaningful patterns or to characterise the strength of the fields in which he competed. Jakubows' career has been retired since 2008, leaving no subsequent activity to document.
