Vince Groome competed in NASA racing for two seasons between 2010 and 2011, completing six starts across three rounds. His rating of 1,091 places him at the developing level of club racing; he raced consistently against semi-professional competitors in fields that included former and future series champions, though without establishing a competitive pattern against them. He recorded one win and three podiums in his NASA entries, averaging a third-place finish.[1]
Groome's head-to-head record against his most frequent rivals was mixed. He finished ahead of Mike Ivie five times in six races and ahead of Max Fischer, the 2010 NASA GTS4 champion, twice from six meetings. However, he trailed Omar Lopez five times from six shared races despite beating him once, and similarly struggled against other regular opponents. His strongest single result came when he finished ahead of Joshua Smith, the 2011 NASA GTS3 champion, in one race. His career totals of one win from six starts reflected his position as a developing driver in club-level competition rather than an established contender.
