Stuart Crow (born August 21, 1959) is an American former racing driver. Crow won the 1990 United States Formula Super Vee Championship and the 2000 United States Formula 3 Championship.

Career 1983-1986: Formula Ford, Formula 2000

Crow’s introduction to motorsports began with dirt bikes and, later, IKF and WKA Karting. He subsequently graduated to racing cars, starting with Formula Ford and Formula 2000. He quickly showed his mettle, winning the Formula 2000 class at the SCCA National Run-offs at Road Atlanta in 1985. The following season Crow graduated to the Canadian Formula 2000 Championship and scored his first professional victory at Quebec’s Sanair Super Speedway en route to sixth place in the series. In October 1986, Crow finished third at the CASC F2000 Grand National Canadian Run-off.

1987-2000: Formula Super Vee, Formula Atlantic, Formula Three

In the late 1980's, Crow took the next step on the professional racing ladder, by competing in the Bosch VW Formula Super Vee Series, a national championship that propelled Michael Andretti, Al Unser Jr. and Arie Luyendyk into North America's premiere racing series' (Cart, IndyCar and IMSA). After contesting several races with smaller teams, Crow joined Ralt America in mid-1988 with immediate results, reeling-off a string of top ten finishes including a fifth place in the season finale that helped him secure eighth place in the season standings.

In 1991, Crow drove for BDJS/Ralt America in the United States Formula Atlantic Championship. Crow earned podium finishes on the streets of Des Moines and Watkins Glen, as well as a fourth place in the series’ most iconic race on the streets of Trois Rivieres in Quebec. The highlight of the season came in Canada where Crow scored his first Formula Atlantic win at the Grand Prix of Toronto, a result that helped him secure fourth place overall in his first season of Formula Atlantic.

Although 1993 would effectively prove to be Crow's final season of professional racing, on the three occasions when he returned to professional racing he continued to be competitive. In 1994 Crow drove for Florida Sports Cars in the American Continental Championship at the Dallas Grand Prix and won. In 1996 Crow drove for BDJS/Ralt America at the fourth round of the Players's Toyota Atlantic Championship at Nazareth. He won pole and finished second to the eventual championship winner Patrick Carpentier.
