Todd Szegedy (born May 6, 1976) is an American former stock car racing driver. He was the 2003 champion of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour.

Busch Series career In 2004, Szegedy competed in three NASCAR Busch Series races for NEMCO Motorsports in the No. 7 and No. 87 Chevrolets, with an average finish of 25th place. He made his Busch Series debut at the Milwaukee Mile starting in the 23rd position and finishing 21st. His best career finish came at the Memphis Motorsports Park which he started 37th and finished fifteenth.

Szegedy is best remembered by NASCAR fans for an incident that took place during his qualifying run for his second career start, which came at Chicagoland Speedway in July of 2004 in the No. 7 NEMCO car. During his run, a gigantic inflatable orange promoting race sponsor Tropicana was blown by the wind onto the racing surface, forcing Szegedy to dodge it. Szegedy was granted another qualifying attempt and qualified twelfth.

Whelen Modified career Szegedy resumed driving in the Whelen Modified Tour part-time since 2000. He has nineteen career wins along with eleven pole positions. He was awarded win number sixteen in 2011 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway after Ryan Newman's car was disqualified after failing post race inspection.
