🏳️ Nicholas Terlecki

Nicholas Terlecki is a semi-professional kart racer whose four-year record spans five starts at the SKUSA SuperNationals, the premier annual invitational in American karting. His Racer Rating of 3,394 places him in the semi-professional band, indicating competitive performance among paid and dedicated amateur drivers in his chosen discipline rather than full-time professional standing. Across his limited race record, he averaged a tenth-place finish; he secured two podiums from his five starts, with both coming during the 2021 to 2024 period.[1]

Terlecki's most regular competitors at the SuperNationals were drivers ranging from 3,000 to 4,000 in rating, a peer group of semi-professionals and developing professionals. Against Ethan Lampe, a former champion rated significantly higher at 3,971, Terlecki held a 2-1 head-to-head advantage across their three meetings. He also demonstrated an ability to outpace several rivals of similar standing; he finished ahead of Oliver Calvo, Chase Hand, and Alexander Kardashian in two of three encounters each, and held a perfect record against Peyton Phillips across three shared races. His single appearance ahead of Brent Crews, an FIA Silver sportscar driver and former champion rated 5,330, represents an isolated strong result rather than a pattern of sustained performance at that level.

Terlecki retired from racing after the 2024 SuperNationals season, ending a brief competitive career concentrated almost entirely on one event series.
