Michael Neff holds a Racer Rating of 847, placing him at club level; this describes a driver consistently at the back of club fields or too early in a racing career to have moved off the entry level. His record shows three seasons of racing from 2024 to 2026, all in SVRA, with seven starts and no wins or podiums. He has not finished better than seventeenth place on average.[1]
Neff's head-to-head record against his most frequent rivals shows a mixed picture typical of club-level racing. Against Philip Lewis, an FIA Bronze-graded driver, Neff finished ahead once but behind five times across six races. He has similar losing records against Tom Grunnah and Mark S Clark, both stronger-rated drivers. Against Jeff Hardesty, a much weaker competitor, Neff has won the head-to-head four times without loss. Neff has occasionally finished ahead of significantly stronger drivers; he beat Mark Coombs, a semi-professional driver rated 3,042, twice, and has single results ahead of Bob Lima and Judd Miller, though these do not establish a pattern.
Neff remains active in SVRA as of 2026, having completed three rounds in that year without a podium finish and placed 236th overall. His career remains at an early developmental stage.
