The 2023 ARCA Menards Series was the 71st season of the ARCA Menards Series, a stock car racing series sanctioned by NASCAR in the United States. The season began at Daytona International Speedway with the BRANDT 200 on February 18 and ended with the Shore Lunch 200 at Toledo Speedway on October 7.
Nick Sanchez, the 2022 series champion, did not return to run full-time in the ARCA Menards Series in 2023 and defend his title as he moved up to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series full-time driving for Rev Racing, the same team he won the ARCA championship with in 2022. After taking the green flag for the Atlas 200, Jesse Love of Venturini Motorsports claimed the ARCA Menards Series championship. [1]
Note: If a driver is listed as their own crew chief for a particular race, that means that their entry in that race was a start and park.
Notes
Some tracks announced their 2022 race dates before the release of the entire schedule [76] on November 11, 2022. [77]
After previously only broadcasting about half of the main ARCA Series races for several years (usually only the races that were on the same weekend and at the same track as a NASCAR Cup, Xfinity and/or Truck race), Fox announced that they would broadcast all 20 main ARCA Series races in 2023. [78]

(at 0:37) MARK KRISTL: And Watkins Glen (will be) the next race then? BOB SCHACHT: Yep
I am so thankful to Jason, Cody and the entire @cr7motorsports team for the opportunity & bringing me a fast car.
Greg Van Alst wasn't sure what happened in his crash in his NASCAR Xfinity debut at Atlanta. He shared that he'll run the ARCA race at IRP
The #26 will ride again in ARCA possibly as soon as Daytona. We have been working on a second car for a while and it is almost ready to roll. We are also working on a back-up car ourselves for 2023. We fully expect to be a two-car team for all of the upcoming season. From Brad
He's a solid dude and incredibly dedicated to making this team work. We have some really cool plans for 2023!
Excited to join @ToyotaRacing's GR CUP North America full time 2023 season with @racewithnitro @NickTucker70
