Michael Greenfield (born April 15, 1963) is an American former owner-driver in the CART series. Born in Whitestone, New York, he made 6 Indy Lights starts in 1988. In 1989 he purchased a 1987 Lola chassis and attempted to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 and the Pocono Raceway event, crashing during practice both times. He returned the next year with the same car and competed in 7 races, his career-best finish of 12th coming in an attrition-filled Meadowlands race. He funded two more races with Dale Coyne Racing and competed in the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1991, then returned in 1994 and 1995 to attempt to qualify for the Indy 500 with a 1993 Lola powered by his own Greenfield V8 engine, failing to make the race both years.
