Kody Swanson is an entry-level professional, FIA Silver graded, who raced in two national single-class sprint championships in the United States during 2020 and 2021. He competed in the ARCA Menards Series and the Indy Pro 2000 Championship, driving for Legacy Autosport and GMS Racing.[1]

His indexed record spans four starts across both series. He won once in the Indy Pro 2000 Championship and took a second podium finish in the same series, finishing 11th in the championship standings that season. In the ARCA Menards Series he started twice without a points finish in either outing.[2]

In his limited time on record, Swanson raced against an established professional field. He beat Jesse Love, who would go on to win the ARCA Menards Series championship in 2023, and Hunter McElrea, an established professional with extensive experience in Indy Pro 2000, Indy NXT and IMSA WeatherTech racing. His career outside the indexed database has been substantially more extensive; he is a multiple-time champion of the USAC Silver Crown Series and a three-time Little 500 winner.
