Paul Wooding competed in American Endurance Racing over nine seasons from 2016 to 2024, accumulating 61 starts with 6 wins and 22 podiums. His Racer Rating of 1,359 places him in the club racing band, describing a driver competing consistently in regional and amateur fields rather than among professionals. His average finishing position of fifth across all starts reflects competitive performance within that environment, though his most recent appearance in 2024 resulted in a 120th-place finish.[1]

Wooding won the 2022 American Endurance Racing Class 3 championship, his sole title on record. His competitive record against frequent rivals shows mixed results typical of this level; he maintained a winning record against Assen Rachev, a 2017 Class 2 champion, over 23 shared races, but finished consistently behind stronger drivers such as James Counterman and Cody Ace, both multiple class champions, losing those head-to-head records decisively. He occasionally finished ahead of professionally-graded drivers including FIA Silver and Bronze-categorised competitors, though these instances were isolated rather than establishing a pattern of dominance at a higher level.

Wooding is now retired from racing. His nine-year tenure in American Endurance Racing represents a sustained amateur career in a single series, where he achieved success within his class but did not establish himself as a threat to the championship-calibre drivers who shared the grid.
