The partnership between Motorsport Games and Live Fast Motorsports featured multiple races on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule. The video game developer served as the primary partner for several races while advertising both “NASCAR Heat 5” and “NASCAR 21: Ignition.”
McLeod joined forces with Motorsport Games for the season-opening Daytona 500 on February 14, 2021. He ran a “NASCAR Heat 5” and Xbox Free Play Days primary scheme on the No. 78 and finished 23rd overall.
McLeod used a Motorsport Games scheme for the Dixie Vodka 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway and the Foxwoods Resorts Casino 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. McLeod then switched to “NASCAR 21: Ignition” schemes for races at Talladega Superspeedway, Texas Motor Speedway, and Kansas Speedway.
