Racer Kashima competed in the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by Michelin across two seasons from 2018 to 2019, making 14 starts for Copeland Motorsports. The driver finished without a win or podium, averaging a finishing position of 20th place across classified starts. Kashima's Racer Rating of 2,337 places them in the competitive amateur band, describing a driver racing at club level and the entry end of professional competition.[1]

Kashima's head-to-head record against frequent rivals reflects the competitive nature of the field. Against Selin Rollan, a semi-professional driver, Kashima was outpaced in all 13 shared races. The same pattern held against most other regulars; Luke Oxner and Nikko Reger, who won the 2018 Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup ND1 championship, both finished ahead of Kashima in 11 of 11 shared races. Kashima did manage isolated finishes ahead of stronger drivers, including Robert Noaker, an FIA Silver graded professional and multi-time Mustang Challenge champion, once in 12 meetings, and Michael Dinan, another FIA Silver professional, twice in limited encounters. These isolated results stand out against a broader pattern of consistently finishing mid-to-back in a field of semi-professional and professional competitors.[2]

The driver retired after 2019 with no championship finishes or significant hardware from their career on record.
