🏳️ Kenny Teal

Kenny Teal's career on record spans a single season of SCCA racing in 2022, comprising three starts in SCCA Majors and three in SCCA Regionals for a total of six races. The driver scored three podiums across these six starts without a win, achieving an average finish of third place. Teal is now retired from racing.[1]

Teal's rating of 1,275 places them in the developing category, describing a driver with consistent participation in club and regional racing but without the sustained results required to move into competitive amateur territory. The record shows that Teal raced alongside considerably stronger competition; the most frequent rivals included Ashlyn Speed, the 2023 SCCA Majors FX champion rated at 2,669, and Danny Soufi, an FIA Silver-graded driver rated at 2,514. Across six shared races against Speed, Teal finished ahead on all six occasions. The same pattern held against Soufi and Michael Porter, a professional-level driver rated at 2,240, whom Teal also beat in all six shared outings. Against Bob Stretch, another professional competitor, Teal finished ahead twice and behind four times.

This head-to-head performance against drivers substantially higher-rated and more accomplished, particularly Speed's championship credentials, is the most noteworthy aspect of the limited record available. However, the single season of competition, the absence of wins despite the podium finishes, and the career's conclusion after 2022 mean that Teal's overall achievement remains modest by any measure. The record does not indicate whether Teal stepped away by choice or circumstance.
