Racing career

Kingsbury began his racing career in 2016, racing at Autodrome St. Eustache in the sportsman class. [2]

Kingsbury debuted in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series in 2017, competing in ten races at Autodrome St. Eustache and finishing 11th in the track championship. [3] That same year, he also competed in the first two races of the ACT Late Model Tour and full time in the Serie ACT Quebec, finishing 10th in the standings.

In 2018, Kingsbury returned to the ACT Late Model Tour for one race. He would compete full time in the Canadian Stock Car Championship, scoring a best finish of second at Circuit Trois-Rivières.

Kingsbury ran 9 of 10 races in the 2019 ACT season, finishing 6th in the standings. He would also make his NASCAR Pinty’s Series debut, where driving the No. 75 Dodge for Kevin Lacroix's team, he would finish inside the top-ten in all three starts. [4]

Kingsbury returned to the Pinty's Series, known as the Pinty's FanCave Challenge for the year, in 2020. He drove the No. 75 in four of the season's six races, scoring his first top five with a fifth place result at Sunset Speedway. [5]

In 2021, Kingsbury did not compete in any Pinty's Series races, but rather returned to the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series for the first time since 2017, this time competing at Autodrome Chaudière, where he ran seven races, scoring his first series win. [3]

Kingsbury returned to ACT and Pinty's Series competition in 2022, competing in three ACT races, although he failed to finish all three. In the Pinty's Series, he drove the No. 12 Dodge for his own team, Duroking Autosport, in four races, scoring a best finish of fourteenth twice. [6] He would also compete in five World Series of Asphalt races at New Smyrna Speedway, scoring a best finish of 11th twice.

Kingsbury ran two ACT races in 2023, contending for a win at Autodrome Montmagny in July. [7] He returned to the Serie ACT Quebec for the first time since 2017, competing full time and scoring a win at Autodrome Montmagny. He made one Pinty's Series start for his own team, finishing sixteenth at Autodrome Chaudière. [8]

Kingsbury would compete in one ACT race and seven Serie ACT Quebec races in 2024. Prior to the 2024 NASCAR Canada Series season, Kingsbury would partner with competitor Kevin Lacroix to form Innovation Auto Sport. [1] [9] Driving the No. 9 Dodge, Kingsbury competed in three Canada Series races in 2024, scoring his second career top-five with a fourth place finish in the season finale at Montmagny. [10]

For 2025, Kingsbury would move to competing in the Canada Series full time, continuing to drive Innovation Auto Sport's No. 9. [2]
