USF pro 2000 CHAMPIONSHIP
USF Pro 2000 Presented by Continental Tire has served as a vital step on the career path of many of today’s top drivers. It is the third official step on the USF Pro Championships ladder. The series is sanctioned by USAC and owned and operated by Andersen Promotions.
USF Pro 2000’s roots date back to 1991 with the Star Mazda Championship, which ceased operation in 2012 after 22 years. Andersen Promotions founded what is now USF Pro 2000 in December of 2012 to replace the void left by Star Mazda. Graduates include Oliver Askew, Conor Daly, Louis Foster, James Hinchcliffe, Sage Karam, Kyle Kirkwood, Patricio O'Ward, Spencer Pigot, Graham Rahal, Christian Rasmussen, Myles Rowe, Sting Ray Robb and Rinus VeeKay.
The 2027 USF Pro 2000 champion will receive a scholarship valued at $603,000 to advance to INDY NXT in 2028. Additional prize money and awards include the Continental Tire Pole Award for each race as well as season-ending awards for Rookie of the Year, Championship Team, Engineer of the Year, Mechanic of the Year, Hard Charger, Move of the Year and Spirit Award.
