🏳️ Kelton Jago

Kelton Jago is a competitive amateur racing driver with a Racer Rating of 1,481, placing him at the front edge of club racing where real competition exists but the fields do not typically contain full-time professionals. His seven-season career from 2020 to 2026 spans SCCA club and regional competition, the entry point of American motorsport. Across 25 starts he has not won a race but has secured six podium finishes, averaging a sixth-place result when classified.[1]

Jago's record against his peer group shows a decisive pattern. He has beaten Eric Cruz, a much weaker driver, in 18 of 22 shared races. Against drivers at his own level or above, the results are more competitive but typically unfavourable. He finished ahead of Bailey Monette, a one-time SCCA champion, only three times in twelve meetings, and behind Paul Schneider, another established semi-professional, nine times in twelve. His most notable achievements are isolated results against significantly stronger drivers: two wins in head-to-head meetings against Caleb Shrader (a professional-level competitor), and single victories over Eric Wisniewski and Whitney Strickland, both former champions, and Ray Mason, an FIA Bronze-graded driver. These are individual results rather than sustained patterns, but they show Jago is capable of competitive performances above his typical station.

His recent activity confirms he remains active in SCCA competition as of 2022, competing primarily in the SCCA Majors series where he has accumulated most of his starts and podiums.
