🇺🇸 Keith Drake

Keith Drake raced in NASA, a multiclass national championship mixing amateur and professional drivers across fifteen classes in a single race. Competing in the American Stock Car, CMC, and Factory Five Challenge classes in late-model stock cars and pony cars between 2004 and 2007, Drake took six podiums across 31 starts before retiring. His career places him at club level, rated 1,171.[1]

Drake spent four seasons in NASA without winning a championship. He finished 16th in the final championship standings in 2007, his last recorded season. His podium finishes came against a mixed field of club and developing drivers; he typically finished behind James Griffith III, a two-time NASA CMC champion who raced 53 NASA events, but regularly ahead of Julie Bergman, a developing driver with 57 NASA starts. Drake beat semi-professional Brian Kamisky, who later won the 2008 NASA Legends Semi-Pro championship, three times across their meetings.[2]
