Robby Foley is a professional endurance racing driver competing in multiclass national championships in North America. He races for Turner Motorsport, one of the region's most established operations, piloting BMW GT3 machinery in IMSA WeatherTech and GT World Challenge America, where he earned the FIA Gold grading that places him among the full professional ranks in sportscar racing. He has made 215 starts across 11 seasons since 2016, the bulk of them in shared-car endurance racing where multiple drivers rotate through a single entry over the course of each event.[1]
His record centres on the IMSA WeatherTech Championship, where he has taken 8 wins and 25 podiums from 89 starts, and on GT World Challenge America, where he was newly dominant in 2025 with 7 wins and 17 podiums from 27 starts, securing the Pro-Am class championship with Turner. He has also competed in IMSA's Pilot Challenge series, winning 5 races there from 72 starts, and made brief forays into prototype racing and European endurance competition. The 2025 GT World Challenge America title marks his first major championship win on record.[2]
Foley operates in a field that spans from amateurs to graded professionals, where he has proven consistently competitive against established names. He has regularly finished ahead of Spencer Pumpelly, a former IMSA Pilot Challenge ST champion, and matches closely with Trent Hindman, a Gold-graded professional and two-time IMSA champion. He has also beaten stronger opposition: Kyle Kirkwood, an Indy NXT champion with 81 IndyCar starts, five times; and Chase Briscoe, an ARCA champion with a NASCAR Cup career, twice. His depth in endurance racing and standing at Turner Motorsport, which fields multiple competitive entries each season, speaks to his role as an established part of the team's rotation rather than a prospect.
