Russ Hamilton raced in NASA, a national multiclass endurance championship in which a Spec Miata class shares track time with 14 other categories and a field mixing amateurs with graded professionals. He is a developing driver, meaning he competed at a level below semi-professional racing. His sole indexed series was NASA from 2005 to 2013, where he started 83 times and finished 111th in the final championship standings of his last season.[1]
Hamilton took four podiums across nine seasons. He finished ahead of entry-level professionals including Nathan Stacy, a Silver-graded driver who raced at Lamborghini Super Trofeo World Final and had only ten NASA starts, and Mark Smith, a Bronze-graded driver who contested British GT Championship rounds as well as club racing. Against his most frequent opponents, Hamilton was closely matched with Kevin Pyles, another developing driver with 179 NASA starts, and usually finished behind Trevor McCallion, a competitive amateur with 202 NASA entries and thirteen SCCA Majors races.[2]
