I haven't seen the Road Atlanta race on speed, so I didn't realize he'd had an improved finish. 7th is quiet respectable for a rookie. I just looked and Rahal finished 9th.

Star Mazda cars are a tad slower than a Atlantics car, so it's not close to GP2 in that respect. The field appears to be pretty strong. I'm not particularly familiar with the lower European formulas, but I think it's sort of between F3 and GP2, but probably closer to F3.
As for height, unless Rahal is aiming for F1, he should be fine in open wheel. Anyone ever heard of Justin Wilson?
