Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Following a serious illness which nearly took his life, McIntosh purchased a track day car, stating that he daydreamed about becoming a racing driver as he recovered from his illness.[1] Due to delays in receiving his track day car, he enrolled in the Lucas Oil School of Racing, where he met future co-driver Glenn McGee.[2] Coincidentally, McIntosh had also worked with Jared Thomas' former college roommate, paving the way for McIntosh to join Thomas' JTR Motorsports Engineering team for a select few races in the Mazda MX-5 Cup.[1]

Following a pair of races with the team in 2021, McIntosh took on a full-time drive in the series in 2022. He tallied a best finish of 14th, in the final round of the season at Road Atlanta, finishing 25th in the championship after skipping the round at VIR. McIntosh's VIR weekend was instead spent debuting in Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America, where he scored a maiden class win in LB Cup on Sunday.[3]

Global racing expansion (2023–Present)

[edit]
McIntosh's Lamborghini Super Trofeo entry at Watkins Glen in 2023

2023 saw McIntosh expand into Super Trofeo competition full-time, where he and McGee took on an effort in the series' Am class. After claiming four podium finishes in the opening four races, the duo claimed a breakthrough class victory at Road America.[4] The win was the first in a string of five consecutive race victories for McIntosh, as the team swept the final two rounds of the American calendar at VIR and Indianapolis,[5][6] claiming the title with a race to spare during the season finale at Vallelunga.[7] Later that weekend, McGee and McIntosh were crowned World Finals champions in the Am class, becoming the only American drivers to win a World Final in 2023.[8] The duo had elected to take on the two Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe races that weekend as well, giving them additional track time and setup knowledge which they stated were instrumental in helping them taking the title.[9] McIntosh also took on a second full-time Mazda MX-5 Cup campaign in 2023, tallying a career-best finish of sixth at St. Petersburg, as well as select outings in the Michelin Pilot Challenge and Porsche Sprint Challenge North America.

McIntosh returned to defend his title in 2024, shifting from Precision Performance Motorsports to an entry fielded by Wayne Taylor Racing.[10] Following a pair of podium finishes in the season opener at Sebring, the duo claimed their first victory of the season at Laguna Seca following the class-winning #28 entry failing post-race technical inspection.[11][12] The duo proceeded to claim weekend sweeps at COTA[13] and Indianapolis,[14] before a sixth class victory of the season in the final race at Jerez confirmed a second consecutive Am class championship for McIntosh.[15] After taking part in the final few rounds of the Super Trofeo Europe season with Brendon Leitch, McIntosh launched a two-pronged effort on the World Finals, racing alongside McGee in the Am championship and Leitch in the Pro/Am final.[16] The Pro/Am final saw McIntosh and Leitch sweep the class, claiming the world title in the process.[17] In the Am final, McIntosh came up a point short to winner Renaud Kuppens, missing out on a second world title of the year.[18]

2024 also saw McIntosh debut in GT3 machinery, taking on the Italian GT Championship alongside McGee in a Mercedes-AMG GT3.[19] In the series' Sprint championship, the duo were crowned Am-class champions. McIntosh also took part in select few Mazda MX-5 Cup races with JTR, the 2024 Road to Le Mans,[20] and the inaugural 992 Endurance Cup.[21] During the off-season, McIntosh also took part in the Asian Le Mans Series, returning to the Mercedes-AMG GT3 platform with which he won his Italian GT title earlier that year.[22] Driving alongside Parker Thompson and Ben Barnicoat, McIntosh claimed his sole class victory of the season in the first race at Dubai,[23] en route to a sixth-place championship finish.

McIntosh at Watkins Glen in 2025

McIntosh kicked off his 2025 campaign by debuting at the 24 Hours of Daytona, where he competed with Van der Steur Racing in the GTD class.[24] Driving alongside Rory van der Steur, Valentin Hasse-Clot, and Maxime Robin, McIntosh came home sixth in class in his IMSA SportsCar Championship debut. He later expanded his program with the team to include the entire Michelin Endurance Cup. Over the course of 2025, McIntosh also returned to Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America, stepping up to the Pro-Am class alongside his previous Super Trofeo Europe co-driver, Brendon Leitch.[25] McIntosh also worked closely with Thompson, who served as the former's driver coach, in GT4 America and GT America competition over the course of the year.[26] In June, McIntosh made his debut at the 24 Hours of Spa, driving in the Pro-Am class for Beechdean Motorsport alongside Hasse-Clot, Andrew Howard, and Ross Gunn.[27] McIntosh finished second in class and 32nd overall. Later that year, McIntosh made his FIA World Endurance Championship debut, replacing Derek DeBoer in Racing Spirit of Léman's entry at Interlagos.[28]

Personal life

[edit]

McIntosh serves as the CEO of manufacturing company Global Power Components.[29] The company features prevalently on his Lamborghini Super Trofeo race cars.
