Jack Polito

Jack Polito is quickly establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with in Canadian motorsports. Hailing from Lindsay, Ontario, this young driver has already achieved significant success in a relatively short period. He is a two-time and reigning champion of the Sports Car Championship Canada (SCCC) GT4 class. By the end of 2024, he had secured an impressive 19 victories in just 25 starts since his SCCC debut in 2022. Polito's journey to auto racing began on dirt, where he honed his skills racing dirt bikes and snowmobiles from the age of five. He even reached the level of factory rider for Canadian snowmobile manufacturer Ski-Doo, claiming a national championship in 2020 before transitioning to his passion for cars.

Before dominating the SCCC GT4 class, Polito gained experience in the Canadian Formula 1600 Championship with Brian Graham Racing. In 2020, he earned the Rookie of the Year title in the premier A Class and followed up with a strong 2021 season, highlighted by a win in the Al Craighead CanAm Memorial Cup race at Calabogie Motorsports Park. His transition to sports car racing came in 2022 when his father, Anthony, a Ford dealership president and historic racer, allowed him to drive his Ford Mustang GT4 in the final races of the SCCC season.

In 2023, competing full-time in the FEL Sports Car Championship Canada (SCCC), Polito secured the championship with nine wins. He demonstrates adaptability on various tracks, including street circuits, and his success is a testament to his driving talent and the support of his Polito Racing team. As of July 2024, he leads the Sports Car Championship Canada presented by Michelin - GT4, showcasing continued success in his Ford Mustang GT4. Beyond racing, Polito is active on TikTok, promoting Canadian motorsport to younger audiences and helping attract new fans and competitors to series like SCCC and Radical Cup Canada.
