Cannot find anything notable about the individual. His racing stats are certainly not notable.
I am not sure what the "North American Grand Prix Championship held in Las Vegas" is referring to (ie. series, class, car). Also the "Fastest Lap Time Award at Daytona Beach, Florida" may be true but is most likely in a certain type of car which is not notable.
Ultimately I believe it fails SIGCOV lacks strong reliable sources. Grahaml35 ( talk) 20:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

- Comment - Certainly not notable as a racing driver. There appear to be some Indian sources regarding his career in technology which I'm not going to bother to assess right now, but as a racing driver it's fairly obvious via the lack of dedicated racing industry press or even database sources (racing-reference, driverdb, etc.) that he's a track day hobbyist at best and if this is kept, a different disambiguator would need to be discussed via a requested move. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 03:41, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete as likely hoax. Basically can't corroborate any of the claims in the article or sources; vastly overrepresented at best, just made up at worst. Claimed racing achievements aren't reflected in any racing press, as suggested by GhostOfDanGurney. The cryptography algorithm claims aren't reflected in any academic sources. The "brain-computer interface" claim is likely this obscure conference proceeding paper. [1] ~ A412 talk! 19:21, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails WP:N. The subject does not seem to have done anything significant and worthy of notice enough to deserve wide attention as technology profession or as race car driver. He is said to be winner of the 2016 Grand Prix. There is no official grand prix site that has him listed as a winner. I do not find any coverage about the race. If he won a grand prix, it does not seem the race was notable. RangersRus ( talk) 12:32, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
