NASCAR in Chi-town...from the Land of the Long White Cloud? You bet!
So, you're a Kiwi with a hankering for some high-octane stock car action, but there's a slight snag: the race is happening in windy Chicago, and you're chilling in beautiful New Zealand. Fear not, fellow motorsport fanatic, because this guide is here to turn you into a virtual pit crew chief, all from the comfort of your couch.
Forget the Plane Ticket, Grab the Remote!
There's no need to dust off your passport just yet. Thanks to the wonders of modern technology (and some clever broadcasting deals), you can catch all the NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series races live and free, right here in NZ. That's right, you can ditch the jet lag and ditch the hefty airfare!
ThreeNow's Your NASCAR Oasis
Here's the golden ticket: ThreeNow, the kiwi streaming platform, has become your portal to NASCAR paradise. They've struck a deal to broadcast every single Cup and Xfinity Series race, meaning you can witness all the fender-to-fender action, burnout celebrations, and epic pit stops.
Bonus! You can also follow the journey of our very own Kiwi champion, Shane van Gisbergen, as he tears up the track in the Xfinity Series. Talk about supporting your countryman from afar!
Tuning in to ThreeNow: Easy as Pie
Don't worry, navigating ThreeNow is easier than navigating a tricky chicane. Here's the lowdown:
- Head over to [threenow.co.nz] and create a free account (it's a breeze, we promise).
- Search for "NASCAR" and voila! All the races will be there waiting for you.
- Grab your favorite snacks and beverage (maybe a nice cuppa?), settle in, and enjoy the race!
Top Tip: Bookmark the NASCAR section on ThreeNow so you can find it in a flash come race day.
No More Monday Morning Blues

ThreeNow also offers replays and highlights, so you can catch up on all the action whenever it suits you. No more Monday morning blues wondering who won – you can be the one spoiling the race for your mates!
So there you have it, folks! Watching NASCAR from Chicago while basking in the New Zealand sunshine? Absolutely possible. Now get ready to yell, cheer, and maybe shed a happy tear (because let's face it, NASCAR is emotional!), all from the comfort of your living room.
