Like NASCAR Heat 2, the career option for the game includes the option to play in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. Additions for the third installment include a new Xtreme Dirt Tour and the option to manage your own team in NASCAR national series competition.[4] The Xtreme Dirt Tour emulates the feel of local dirt track racing, with a variety of new tracks. Notable new tracks include a dirt version of Bristol Motor Speedway and tracks re-done from NASCAR: Dirt to Daytona.[5] The Charlotte Motor Speedway road course is also available to play at in the Bank of America Roval 400 event.[6]
