William Shields is a club-level driver competing in SCCA national and regional multiclass championships in the United States. He races one-design Spec Racer Ford sports cars in the SRF3 class, primarily in SCCA Regionals where he has contested 46 starts across five seasons.[1]
Shields has accumulated 4 wins and 11 podiums from 61 starts across SCCA Regionals, SCCA Majors, and SVRA since 2021. His record is concentrated in SCCA Regionals, where he took three of his four wins. His most recent activity came in 2024 SVRA, a smaller multiclass field, where he won once and took two podiums from two rounds; he finished 17th in the season championship.[2]
In SCCA Regionals, where most of his racing happens, he typically finishes ahead of fellow developing drivers such as Chris Brassard and Steven Nelson. He has beaten Brian Schofield, the 2025 SCCA Majors SRF3 champion, once across their meetings, and Judson Holt, a semi-professional Bronze-graded driver with experience in GT4 America, twice. His record against stronger opposition remains occasional rather than consistent.
