🇺🇸 Mathew Keegan

Mathew Keegan is an entry-level professional who raced in shared-driver endurance series in the United States and internationally. His indexed racing spans 2016 to 2018, running GT4-level cars and lightly modified production machinery for C360R in the IMSA Pilot Challenge and for Brookspeed International in the 24H Series. He holds an FIA Bronze classification, the amateur grade in sportscar racing.[1]

Keegan's record consists of 13 starts across the two series, with four podium finishes. In the IMSA Pilot Challenge, where he made 11 starts, he took all four of those podiums and finished third in the championship standings in 2017. His two further starts came in the 24H Series, a multiclass international endurance championship mixing amateur and professional teams on circuits across multiple continents. He raced GT4 machinery in that series in 2017 and 2018.[2]

Keegan's regular opponents in the IMSA Pilot Challenge included established and professional drivers racing for multiple seasons at that level. He finished ahead of Russell Ward, an FIA Silver-graded established professional who later became a multiple-time IMSA WeatherTech GTD champion, more often than not across their meetings. He was closely matched with Dillon Machavern, the 2017 IMSA Pilot Challenge GS champion and a professional with a lengthy career in that series and in higher national categories. C360R, the team fielding him for the majority of his starts, was a small operation with four indexed race wins and a strongest driver rated at entry-level professional.
