Career Mode will kick off in your backyard garage, where you’ll customize your vehicle before making your debut in the ARCA Menards Series and honing your skills to advance up the ranks. There’s more to a successful career than just racing - you’ll sign contracts, earn money, hire staff, expand your facilities, and make public appearances to build your reputation. Strategic choices off the track will play a pivotal role in your journey to becoming a NASCAR Cup Series champion.

On the racetrack, you’ll have more interaction with your crew chief and spotter than ever before.
