Kyle Kimball is a retired driver who competed in club-level racing. His Racer Rating of 2,802 places him in the competitive amateur band; this level describes quick, usually self-funded drivers who race against professionals rather than exclusively with peers at their own standing, typically winning in club and regional fields.[1]
Kimball's career on record consists of a single season in the 2018 Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by Michelin, where he made four starts for Racing Analytics without winning or podium finishes. His average finishing position of P15 reflects a mid-field presence in this one-make series. Against the frequent rivals documented in his record, Kimball showed mixed results; he beat FIA Silver graded professional Ashton Harrison twice in three shared races and managed single victories over Silver graded Robert Noaker and Bronze graded Zachry Lee, but was consistently outpaced by the series' champion Nikko Reger, finishing behind him in all three races they shared. The strength of those occasional strong results, particularly against graded professionals, suggests Kimball was competitive on his best days within an amateur field, though his overall record demonstrates he was not consistently at that level.
