Glenn Cooper competed in the Star Mazda Championship across two seasons, from 2002 to 2003, accumulating 13 starts without a win or podium finish. His average finishing position of 12th places him solidly in the semi-professional band; a rating of 3,944 describes a driver competitive enough to beat other paid racers regularly but not consistently enough to establish himself among the front-runners of a strong feeder series.[1]
Cooper's record against his regular rivals tells a mixed story. He finished ahead of Dan Weyland and Steve Cook in nearly all their encounters, suggesting clear superiority over the weaker end of the field, and he held a winning head-to-head record against Luis Schiavo, the 2003 Star Mazda champion. However, he struggled decisively against Moses Smith, the 2002 champion, finishing behind him in 11 of 12 races; he was also outpaced by John Olsen and John Faulkner over the course of the season. His single victories over stronger drivers, including Michael McDowell, who would go on to win the 2004 Star Mazda Championship at a much higher rating, appear to be isolated results rather than signs of sustained competitive advantage.
Cooper's two-year stint in Star Mazda ended in 2003 with a tenth-place finish in the final round. No further racing activity appears on record after that season, marking the end of his career in single-seater competition.
