Frank DePew is a semi-professional driver rated 2,991, placing him at the competitive amateur level where club and regional racing meets the entry end of professional fields. His career spans nine seasons from 2016 to 2026 across IMSA sportscar categories, primarily in the Pilot Challenge series where he has accumulated 68 starts, 9 wins, and 13 podiums for Rebel Rock Racing. He holds the FIA Bronze categorisation, the amateur grade within endurance and GT racing, distinguishing him from the full professionals graded Gold and Silver who often share the same grids. His average finish of P11 across 102 classified starts reflects competitive but mid-field consistency in fields populated by both amateurs and paid drivers.[1]
DePew's record against his most frequent rivals shows a mixed head-to-head picture. He has the edge over established professionals Vincent Barletta and Sean Quinlan, both FIA Bronze graded, winning those individual matchups. Against Hugh Plumb, a Bronze-graded former champion, DePew finished ahead significantly more often; 38 times ahead versus 21 behind across 59 shared races. His most notable competitive relationship is with Robby Foley, an FIA Gold rated driver and former champion who rated substantially higher at 5,081, yet DePew finished ahead of him slightly more often, 30 times to 28. Against Gregory Liefooghe, an FIA Silver professional with a higher 3,908 rating, DePew held a narrow advantage, finishing ahead 37 times in 68 shared starts. Ted Giovanis, the lowest-rated among his frequent rivals at 2,789, proved DePew's most consistent competition disadvantage, with DePew ahead only 19 times in 59 races.
DePew has occasionally beaten much stronger drivers in single-race results, including victories over elite professionals such as Corey Heim, a three-time champion graded Silver at 6,367, and other top-tier circuit racers like Bubba Wallace and Austin Cindric. These remain isolated successes rather than patterns of competitive dominance. His most recent activity in the VP Racing SportsCar Challenge through 2025 produced no wins, though he remained active enough to finish eighth overall in that season's points. Recent team news indicates Rebel Rock Racing has switched to SRO machinery and Aston Martin for 2026, suggesting DePew continues to race competitively at this level.
