🇺🇸 Michael Smith

Michael Smith is a retired driver who competed across five seasons between 2015 and 2024, accumulating 12 starts across four racing series. His racing record is modest; he recorded one win and two podium finishes, both achieved during his time in American Endurance Racing between 2015 and 2017, where he made seven starts. His average finishing position across all classified races was sixth. Smith's racer rating of 845 places him in the developing category; this describes a driver with consistently limited success in club and regional racing fields that do not include established professionals as a regular presence.[1]

Smith's most sustained series activity came in American Endurance Racing, where he finished ahead of notable competitors including Michael Hurczyn, a two-time Class champion in the same series, and several FIA-graded drivers such as Carter Fartuch and Austin Allison. Against his most frequent rivals, Smith showed mixed results; he held a winning head-to-head record against Jeromey Mizer and Justin Lee, though both records were split across very few races. Beyond his 2017 endurance racing activity, Smith's subsequent appearances in SCCA Regionals, SCCA Majors and SVRA vintage racing between 2021 and 2024 yielded no wins or podiums across five starts. His most recent racing came in SVRA in 2024.[2]
