Nick d'Orlando began his motorsports pursuit at the age of five in go karts and over the course of his eleven year career he earned multiple national championship titles.  He culminated his highly successful career in karts as a factory team driver in European karting series' and the FIA World Championships with Comp Kart USA and world championship team, Kart Republic.  Nick was the first American karting driver to debut the Kart Republic brand in North America.

Since making the move to race cars in 2018, he has successfully competed in two full seasons of competition, each resulting in championship podiums, including the 2021 Formula Race Productions F1600 Championship title and most recently the 2024 Radical Cup North America Vice-Champion & Rookie of the Year.  His interim partial seasons provided limited opportunities in the USF Pro Championship's USF Juniors and USF 2000 series with impressive top-10 results in almost all appearances, without any prior testing.

Nick's performances in both F1600 and Radical Cup were extremely impressive.  In F1600, he had a record-setting 12 victories, making him the driver with the most wins in a single season in series' history.  He earned a total of 18 podiums, and a track record, completing the season with a 50% winning percentage.   Under the direction of rookie team Graham Rahal Performance, Nick racked up the most pole positions in the Radical Cup North America Pro 1500 class with eight and had 13 podium results, including five victories and seven fastest laps.

As Nick continues to work to find additional partners and sponsors to return to action in 2025, with focus on the USF Pro Championships, he also continues to pursue a Business Marketing degree at the University of North Carolina Charlotte.  He currently resides in Charlotte, NC with his older bother, Michael, also a racing driver.
