[3] Following several years of competition in karts and dirt track racing, Moffitt began competing on asphalt in 2008, driving in the American Speed Association's Late Model North Series.
He won races at Richmond International Raceway and Central Pennsylvania Speedway,[4] and led the series points after nine events of the fourteen-race season.
[10] In August 2012, Moffitt made his debut in the NASCAR Nationwide Series, driving for RAB Racing at Iowa Speedway in the U.S. Cellular 250.
[2] He made his Sprint Cup Series debut with the MWR-affiliated Identity Ventures Racing in the 2014 FedEx 400.
[13] Moffitt ran for IVR again at Michigan, Indianapolis, Bristol, Atlanta, Charlotte, Texas, and the season finale at Homestead.
55 at Atlanta because MWR's regular driver Brian Vickers had off-season surgery to repair a patch placed over a hole in his heart.
55 at Fontana due to Vickers being sidelined with more blood clots,[14] also declaring for Rookie of the Year at this time.
Later, in the week, Front Row Motorsports announced that Moffitt would return to the team at Kansas and become the primary driver of the 34 for the rest of the 2015 season except at Sonoma, Watkins Glen, and Talladega.
Moffitt ended up running 31 races and won the 2015 NASCAR Cup Series Rookie of the Year honors over contenders Jeb Burton, Matt DiBenedetto, and Alex Kennedy.

Matt Tifft, the driver Moffitt was substituting for, returned to the 11 at Chicagoland Speedway after recovering from brain surgery earlier that year.
At Chicagoland, John Hunter Nemechek ran out of fuel on the last lap, allowing Moffitt to win his third race of the season.
Moffitt made another late-race pass on a restart at ISM Raceway to win his fifth race of the season and lock himself into the Championship 4 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
On December 6, 2018, Moffitt was released by Hattori Racing Enterprises since the team needed to secure a driver who could bring funding for the 2019 season.
[23] On January 10, 2019, it was announced that Moffitt will replace Johnny Sauter as the driver of the GMS Racing No.

[30] In 2020, Moffitt joined Our Motorsports for what was intended to be a four-race Xfinity schedule, but he eventually drove full-time except Bristol, which Patrick Emerling drove, Homestead R2, where he was scheduled to drive but replaced by JA Junior Avila, and Road America and Daytona RC, which were run by road course ringer Andy Lally.
[33] Moffitt led much of the championship race at Phoenix, but elected to stay out after a caution with two laps remaining, resulting in him falling back on the final restart as he finished tenth and third in the standings.
[39] In 2024, Moffitt was announced to run part-time in NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, namely the spring Kansas race, with Tricon Garage, driving the No.
