Each spread contains a racetrack layout or race-related grid and players use the Randomizer to move around the game boards. Games include a tri-oval racetrack (like the Daytona 500) path game, a triple-track, three-races-in-one game, a pit-stop challenge, and two other fun games. In addition, action photos of NASCAR races, cars, and drivers accompany each game board.
