Jeff Davidson is a developing amateur racer who competed in NASA's Spec Miata class, a single-driver spec championship that shares a multiclass grid with amateur and professional entrants. Between 2006 and 2016 he accumulated 84 starts across 11 seasons, recording one win and eight podiums. His most recent season was 2016, when he finished 58th in the championship standings.[1]

Davidson's record in the Spec Miata field places him consistently behind the regular competitors he meets most often; he typically finished behind Christopher Williams and Brian Murdick, both club-level racers with significantly more experience in the series. He recorded isolated wins and podiums against stronger opposition, finishing ahead of Gar Robinson, an established professional and IMSA WeatherTech LMP3 champion, once across their meetings, and beating entry-level professional Ryan Ellis once as well.[2]
