Read the full game description

The Stock Car Championship Racing Card Game models a full field of stock cars with a central track deck and an individual driver deck for every racer. Track cards set a lap count or introduce yellow flags, crashes, and blown engines. Players first commit enough cards to keep pace, then use what remains to pass, block, challenge, draft, and jockey for position. The result is a card-driven sports simulation that supports unusually large groups while preserving the timing, traffic, and risk management of a crowded oval race.
