Frank Raso was a club-level driver competing in national amateur and semi-professional multiclass sprint racing in the United States. He raced a BMW M3 in NASA's GTS2 class, a Porsche 911 in PCA Club Racing, and Porsche GT3 Cup cars in Porsche Carrera Cup NA and Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama, driving for Topp Racing in the latter two series.[1]
Across five seasons from 2016 to 2021, Raso started 22 times and took four podiums, all in NASA between 2018 and 2019. His 10 NASA starts yielded all his finishes in the points; he did not finish in the points in six PCA Club Racing starts or in either Porsche Cup entry, with two starts in Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama in 2017 being his final indexed racing.[2]
In a field mixing amateurs with semi-professionals and graded professionals, Raso typically finished behind Will Choice, a club driver with 24 NASA starts, while consistently beating Mike Ledinski, a developing-level driver also active in NASA. He finished ahead of Eric Foss, an entry-level professional and 2017 IMSA Pilot Challenge ST champion, twice in competition.
