## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability nascar-season-stats-by-driver-a91c2890
```

Example prompt: Pull up the current NASCAR Cup Series season standings — show me the top 20 drivers with their points, wins, and laps led for 2025.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, per-driver NASCAR season statistics sourced directly from NASCAR's official points feed. It is ideal when Racing-Reference is blocked for automated access and you need full-season stats (points, wins, laps led, playoff data) for Cup, Xfinity, or Truck Series from 2018 onward. Prefer this over web scraping or general search when you need clean, machine-readable tabular data for a specific year and series.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid series name returns an error (must be cup, xfinity, or truck)
- Year outside 2018–current range may return no data or an error
- Driver name filter with no matches returns an empty results array
- NASCAR upstream feed temporarily unavailable causes fetch failure
- Limit parameter out of range (>200 or <1) may be rejected or clamped

## How this service works

NASCAR season stats per driver for the Cup, Xfinity (O'Reilly) or Truck Series, 2018 to the current season: points position, points, playoff points/rank, starts, wins, stage wins, poles, top 5, top 10, laps led, DNFs, car number and manufacturer. Data from NASCAR's own public points feed (the stats Racing-Reference season pages list; Racing-Reference itself blocks automated access).

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the year, series name, source URL, total driver count, and an array of driver objects each with: position, driver name, driver ID, car number, manufacturer, points, points behind leader, playoff points, playoff rank, starts, wins, stage wins, poles, top 5 finishes, top 10 finishes, laps led, and DNFs. Also includes a checkedAt timestamp.
