🇺🇸 Mike Senica

Mike Senica is a semi-professional stock car racing driver who competed in two national single-class American stock car championships over four seasons from 2014 to 2018. He raced primarily on ovals in the ARCA Menards Series, where he started 17 times for Bell Plantation between 2014 and 2017, and then moved to NASCAR Truck for Norm Benning Racing, taking 12 starts across 2017 and 2018. His rating of 2,478 places him among semi-professional competitors.[1]

Across 29 starts, Senica finished ahead of established professionals John Hunter Nemechek and Noah Gragson once each, both accomplished drivers with significant NASCAR experience at multiple levels. However, his record against the regulars he faced most often tells a different story; he consistently finished behind Chase Briscoe, the 2016 ARCA champion and a driver who went on to race the Cup Series, and behind Dalton Sargeant, a professional competitor across ARCA and Truck. His 2018 NASCAR Truck campaign, his final indexed season, yielded two starts before he finished 31st in the championship standings. Norm Benning Racing, the team he drove for in his later campaigns, had no wins across the index and fielded 13 drivers, with B.J. McLeod as its strongest entrant.[2]
