🇺🇸 Gino Manley

Gino Manley is an entry-level professional competing in multiclass endurance racing, FIA Silver graded. He races primarily for AOA Racing in the Zenith Racing Series, where he drives a shared car alongside his co-drivers in what is his most sustained campaign on record. His career spans six seasons from 2019 to 2026 across American and European circuits, combining endurance events with occasional national-level competition.[1]

Manley took his first indexed wins in American Endurance Racing between 2019 and 2020, finishing on six podiums across 10 starts in Class 1 and Class 2 machinery. He contested five starts in IMSA Pilot Challenge from 2020 to 2022 in TCR touring cars, then spent 2025 racing in Europe; he started the Nürburgring 24 Hours for Breakell Racing and made two appearances in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie in BMW M240i and VT2 Front 4WD cars. His current campaign in the 2026 Zenith Racing Series has yielded one win and five podiums through eight rounds so far, placing him fourth in the championship standings with further races to come.[2]

His record places him in a field of semi-professional regulars and developing drivers. Ren Messinger and Sergio Ramirez, both semi-professional competitors with varied endurance and club racing experience, have proven closely matched against him. Manley has finished ahead of Danny Formal, a professional three-time Lamborghini Super Trofeo NA champion, and Trenton Estep, a professional with extensive IMSA Pilot Challenge and Porsche Carrera Cup experience, though these remain isolated results within shared-car fields where finishing position reflects the full crew rather than one driver alone.
