Natalie Decker, a talented part-time NASCAR Xfinity Series driver, has been making waves in the racing world. Her journey from regional stock car racing to competing on the national stage showcases her determination and skill. Let’s delve into her NASCAR entry and the challenges she faces as a female driver.
On February 5, 2021, it was announced that Decker would make her debut in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. She drove the No. 23 Chevrolet Camaro for RSS Racing / Reaume Brothers Racing in at least five races, starting at the Daytona Road Course. Red Street Records sponsored her car, highlighting musicians they work with, including Jason Crabb. Decker’s entry into the Xfinity Series marked a significant milestone in her career.
Fast forward to the 2024 season, and Decker found herself behind the wheel of the #36 Chevrolet Camaro for DGM Racing. Her schedule included an appearance during the AG-Pro 300 at Talladega Superspeedway. However, reports indicate that DGM Racing withdrew the #36 entry from the event, leaving Decker without a chance to compete at the 2.5-mile-long oval track. The reasons behind the withdrawal remain undisclosed.
