Sam Corry (born November 14, 2007) is an American racing driver. He currently competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series West, driving for Nitro Motorsports. He has previously driven in the USF2000 Championship.^[1][2][3]

On December 30, 2021, it was announced that Corry would make his open-wheel racing debut in the 2022 USF Juniors driving for Velocity Racing Development.^[4] He would immediately be competitive finishing third in the opening two race of the season at Ozarks International Raceway. Corry would get his maiden win in the first race at the Mid-Ohio round after overtaking championship leader Mac Clark following a restart with six laps to go.^[5] The following round at Road America would see him get pole position for races two and three.^[6] In race one, Corry started third behind Alessandro de Tullio and Mac Clark respectively. Clark would have mechanical issues on lap one which meant that de Tullio assume the lead. However, Corry would overtake de Tullio to lead the race on lap two. He would battle for the lead in the remaining laps of the race with de Tullio, Nikita Johnson, and Andre Castro. Corry would win the race by just 0.030 seconds ahead of de Tullio.^[6] In race two, Corry would start on pole, but would get overtaken for the lead by Nikita Johnson five laps into the race and ultimately finish second. Corry would once again finish second in race three after starting on pole, this time to Alessandro de Tullio.^[6]

At the final round held at Circuit of the Americas, Corry would be on pole for race one. He would get overtaken by Nikita Johnson following the first corner and would later spin. Corry was third on the last lap battling Bryson Morris who was behind. Morris would edge out Corry in a photo finish by just 0.04 seconds which relegated Corry to fourth.^[7] In race two, Corry was in second with a few laps remaining and would once again be battling Morris who was leading. Corry would overtake Morris on lap 12 of 15 and pull away to take his third win of the season. In race three, Corry was battling for the lead with Nikita Johnson and Ryan Shehan. Corry and Shehan would overtake Johnson with Corry gaining the lead. Johnson overtook Shehan for second and then retook the lead from Corry the following lap. Johnson would pull away until a late race safety car came out closing the gap back up. Corry would not be able to overtake Johnson and finished second.

Corry finished second in the championship behind Mac Clark with three wins, three poles, two fastest laps, and eleven podiums.

On October 11, 2022, it was announced that Corry would move up to compete in the 2023 USF2000 Championship sticking with Velocity Racing Development.^[3] At the third round of the season held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Corry qualified 12th for race one. Following two cautions for major incidents, the race resumed with five laps to go. Leaders Nikita Johnson, Lochie Hughes, and Simon Sikes all would run wide at turn one on multiple occasions. Mac Clark would assume the lead with Sikes in second with two laps to go. On the final lap, Clark ran wide at the turn one causing him and Sikes to miss the corner and go onto the grass. This allowed Corry to take the lead and hold on to take his maiden win in the series.^[8] Corry would get two more podiums at Mid-Ohio and the final race of the season at Portland to finish seventh in the championship.
