Jason Vinkemulder, based in the United States, competed in single-seater racing during the mid-2000s. His career on record comprises two starts in the Star Mazda Championship, spanning 2003 to 2008. He finished P30 in his most recent outing in 2008, his only classified result from those two entries. Vinkemulder is rated 2,914, placing him in the competitive amateur band; this level describes the entry end of professional racing, where drivers compete against paid professionals but typically lack the consistency or pace to run regularly at the front.[1]
Across his limited race record, Vinkemulder averaged a finishing position of P22.5. He posted single results ahead of several more established drivers: he beat Christopher Cumming, a professional-rated driver; Alan Rudolph; Tom Nastasi; and John Faulkner. These isolated overtakes came in fields he was not equipped to lead, and do not establish a competitive pattern against drivers of that calibre. Vinkemulder is now retired from motorsport competition.
