Jim McKamey was a developing-level driver who raced in NASA, a national multiclass championship mixing amateur and semi-professional entrants across fifteen classes on the same track. He drove Chevrolet Corvettes in the Super Touring 2 and Super Touring 3 classes, which compete in closed-wheel cars classed by power-to-weight.[1]
McKamey made six starts across the 2011 and 2016 seasons, taking two wins and two podiums. His most recent activity came in 2016, when he started four rounds and finished 29th in the championship standings after recording one win and one podium. His record included victories over Andrew Stevens, a club-level driver with fifteen NASA starts, twice over the course of his career.[2]
In the regular field he faced, McKamey typically finished behind his most frequent opponents. Ryan Upham and Chandler Premo, both developing drivers with regular NASA activity, usually bested him in head-to-head racing. He had also raced against Michael Smith, a more experienced club-level competitor with over seventy combined starts in endurance and club racing, beating him once.
