Racing career

Hingorani raced in the Southwest for the majority of his early racing career, running legends cars in 2021, whilst running the Silver State Road Course Championship, where he won the championship.[3]

Hingorani's No. 19 car at All American Speedway in 2022

In 2022, Hingorani made his ARCA Menards Series West debut at Evergreen Speedway, driving the No. 4 Toyota for Eric Nascimento, whose team Hingorani had raced for in late-model competition.[4] In the race, he started seventh, and finished 14th due to a crash while running in the top-five. He would make four more starts that year, qualifying in the top ten three times, and achieving a best finish of 12th at Portland International Raceway.

Hingorani's No. 15 ARCA car at Sonoma in 2023

On January 18, 2023, it was announced that Hingorani would run in the ARCA Menards Series East full-time for Venturini Motorsports in the No. 15 Toyota.[5] On February 15, it was announced that Hingorani would also compete full time in the ARCA Menards Series West as well, running for both East and West championships.[6] On July 7, Hingorani was involved in an accident near the closing laps of the Zinsser SmartCoat 150 at Mid-Ohio with teammate Dean Thompson. Thompson was coming around to put Hingorani a lap down, before Hingorani intentionally forced Thompson off the track. Hingorani was already summoned to the ARCA Menards officials hauler for an incident earlier in the race between him and Bob Schacht.[7] On July 10, it was announced that Hingorani was suspended for one race (the main and East series combo race at Iowa), and was placed on probation for the rest of the season following the incident. Because Iowa is the fifth race of the East Series season, he will miss out on the 50-point bonus, which is given to every driver who competes in the first five races of the season, ultimately knocking him out of championship contention.[8]
