Now living near Los Angeles, Groff finished top 10 in the Indy 500, 24 Hours of Daytona, 12 Hours of Sebring, and the Baja 1000, making him one of the most versatile drivers in the US in the late 1990's. The 1997 Indianapolis 500 put him in a small group of drivers in its history - including Harroun, Chiron, Holbert and many others, to finish in the top 10 with their only start. He began in Quarter Midgets at the age of seven, then onto Go-Karts before going to Formula Ford with 3 national wins. He had 5 wins in Super Vee and Indy Lights, narrowly missing both championships in 1989 and 1991 in extraordinary fashion, impacting the momentum of his remaining formula car career. Brother of Mike, he retired from competition in 2004, and is now CEO of a family established construction business.
