Racing career

Nascimento first started racing at the age of five, when he raced in go-karts before progressing to the Mini Swift category in 2008.[1] After running in the category for three years, he would move to bandoleros in 2011, where he would compete at Madera Speedway.

In 2020, Nascimento would race in Legends cars for Donny St. Ours Racing before moving to junior late models the following year. He would go on to win the rookie of the year honors after finishing fourth in the points standings that year despite only running limited events due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, Nascimento would move to the 51Fifty Junior Pro Late Model Series, where he would win five races and the championship at Madera, while also winning the Stockton 99 that season.[1] He also ran select starts in the SRL SPEARS Pro Late Model Series and the INEX Nashville Spring Series.[2]
