COLIN KAMINSKY
INDY NXT
Coming back to Indy Pro 2000 for a third year, Kaminsky is determined to use his growth and experience to put himself into victory lane in 2022 and fight for a scholarship into Indy Lights.
2023 marks Colin Kaminsky’s first crack at the INDY NXT By Firestone series. Formerly known as Indy Lights since 1991, the series has an enriched history of catapulting drivers’ careers to the next level into the IndyCar Series. It has been proven time and time again; if you succeed in this series you will punch your ticket to your starting position on the Indianapolis 500 grid.
The Dallara built, INDY NXT By Firestone car, features more of everything compared to Kaminsky’s previous seasons on the Road To Indy. 500 Horsepower, a turbocharged engine, bigger tires, heavier downforce, and the speed, well you can see that for yourself.
Kaminsky has teamed up with the Abel Motorsports crew for his rookie season, driving the #57 Slick Locks / Kaminsky Park Entry. This is Abel Motorsports’ second season in the INDY NXT By Firestone Series and they’re ready to build off of their success last year, having consistent Top 5 finishes.
Kaminsky earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing at the University of Pittsburgh. All while being a two sport athlete, doubling as a goalie for the Men’s ACHA D1 Ice Hockey Team. Now that he is not getting hit in the head with pucks, Kaminsky utilizes his knowledge to further market himself up to the IndyCar Series. Kaminsky’s newest pursuit outside of the racecar has been building a brand new corporate outing facility with his family by the name of Kaminsky Park in the greater Indianapolis region.
Originally from the suburbs of Chicago, Colin is a big fan of local sports teams such as the Blackhawks, Cubs, and Bears. All of which disappoint him on a regular basis. He has since moved to Pittsburgh, PA after his graduation from Pitt, soaking in the local yinzer lifestyle through Steelers tailgates, craft breweries, and confusing traffic patterns. Colin enjoys anything that involves competition whether it’s ping pong or board games. He likes to drive cross country, play guitar, cook, and do anything that effectively makes him a jack of all trades, master of none.
