🇨🇦 Peter Shepherd III

Peter Shepherd III is a competitive amateur stock car driver with a Racer Rating of 2,802, placing him in the club racing band; this level represents the front end of competitive amateur racing, where drivers are quick and racing against established competitors rather than alongside professionals, though the field itself remains amateur. His career on the database spans a single NASCAR Xfinity Series start in 2018, a one-off appearance in a national touring series that produced a 49th-place finish and no points. The calibre of the field he faced included several established professionals: Ryan Sieg (an established professional at the 5,000+ level), Josh Bilicki (a professional competitor), and Dexter Bean and Stan Mullis (semi-professionals). Shepherd finished ahead of all four in that single outing, a notable result against a stronger field than his rating suggests, though one race is insufficient to establish a pattern.[1]

The single start represents the entirety of his documented racing record at the national level. His subsequent career, as biographical background indicates, moved into part-time regional racing with the NASCAR Canada Series and the APC Series, the kind of local and regional competition typical of competitive amateurs building experience or racing for personal satisfaction rather than full-time professional advancement. He has since retired from active competition.[2]
