Gar Robinson is an American racing driver who built his early reputation in the Trans-Am Series, where he claimed back-to-back TA2 class championships in 2015 and 2017 before moving into sports car competition. That grounding in close-quarters oval and road racing helped shape the consistency he later brought to the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, where he has driven for Riley. Across his sports car career, Robinson has become one of the more decorated competitors in the American paddock, amassing three championships, in 2021, 2022, and 2023, a run that established him as a fixture atop the LMP3 class standings during that period.[1]
Over 50 career starts in IMSA WeatherTech competition, Robinson has recorded 13 wins and 26 podium finishes, a strike rate that reflects the sustained success of his three-title stretch. His current Racer Rating of 4,104 places him 500th among active drivers on the platform's Elo-style scale, where the world's top competitors sit in the 10,000 to 11,500 range, indicating a level well below the sport's global elite despite his strong championship pedigree in his own category. The 2026 season has been quiet so far, with no wins or podiums through a single round and a standing of 40th, though Robinson remains an active competitor with Riley as he looks to add to his championship tally.[2]
