Matt Machiko is a semi-professional driver whose single season of racing on record places him in the competitive amateur to semi-professional range, with a Racer Rating of 3,491. His career comprised six starts in the 2017 Pro Mazda Championship for Armsup Motorsports, a feeder series for single-seater racing. He finished consistently outside the points; his average finishing position across classified races was ninth, with no wins or podiums recorded.[1]
Machiko's season was defined by racing against stronger opposition. Victor Franzoni, who won the 2017 Pro Mazda Championship itself, finished ahead of Machiko in all six shared races. Sting Ray Robb, a future Indy Pro 2000 champion and Gold-graded professional, also beat him in all six encounters. Among his regular rivals, only TJ Fischer, an FIA Silver-graded driver, and Jeff Green finished behind him on occasion; Machiko beat Fischer once and Green four times across their meetings. His strongest individual results came against semi-professional and club-level drivers. Machiko's career ended after that single season in 2017.
