Play Fantasy NASCAR At Speedway Collective in 2026
Speedway Collective is back for its 9th season of fantasy NASCAR, with a rebuilt website and platform for the 2026 season. Cup Series rosters are open – set your DAYTONA 500 lineup for free and compete against the best fantasy competition.
About Speedway Collective
We built Speedway Collective after Yahoo fantasy NASCAR closed its doors years ago, providing a way for leagues to continue playing a similar format. Our format requires a season-long strategy with limited starts for each driver. Fantasy leagues are available to join for the Cup Series, O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, and Craftsman Truck Series.
Core Features
Build and Customize Fantasy NASCAR Leagues
League admins have the ability to customize settings to provide a unique experience for members. Admins can customize qualifying, stage, and race scoring, along with a number of different bonus points such as laps led, fastest lap, and winner bonuses.
Create a private, invite-only fantasy NASCAR league to compete with friends, family or coworkers. Public leagues are also available to quickly join and compete against other teams in the community.
Leagues include both season-long points standings, as well as season segment points for Spring, Summer, and Fall. This provides incentive for users to win a segment championship, even if they have fallen behind in overall season points.
Leagues persist year after year, allowing leagues to track career fantasy stats and view standings and results from previous years.
Live Fantasy Scoring
Watch your fantasy team rise and fall in the results throughout the race. Our fantasy and driver results pages update in real time, allowing members to track their running position from start to finish. The points standings also update during a race to reflect the current running order.
Trophies and Awards
After each race, users receive awards for a variety of accomplishments, such as winning a race, hitting milestones such as 5 fantasy race wins, selecting a perfect lineup, winning their league championship, etc. A dedicated awards page within each league allows all members to quickly view others accomplishments.
How Rosters and Driver Usage Limits Work
As nice as it is to start Kyle Larson or Denny Hamlin in your fantasy NASCAR lineup each week, members only have a set number of starts available for each driver throughout the season. This requires teams to strategize when to start each driver. By default, six starts are available for each driver. Leagues admins may customize how many driver starts are available for their league.
- Drivers are split up into four classes: A, B, C, and D
- Members select two drivers from each class for their roster
- Qualifying points are earned if you have a driver who qualifies in the top 3
- Before the green flag, users choose one driver from each class as the starter for the race. Only the four starters earn race points
This system rewards strategy, starting drivers at their best tracks and having competitive drivers available late in the season.
