Lane started crew chiefing in 2000 in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series with Jeremy Mayfield scoring a strong 2nd-place finish at Phoenix Raceway, he caught the attention of Kyle Petty however after the 2nd with Mayfield he would go into a slump not scoring another top ten in the Cup Series until 2006 at Watkins Glen International with Scott Pruett.

Steven would follow J.J. to Team Xtreme Racing and stay until midway through 2014 after poor performance from Yeley where their best finish was a 34th.

Steven made one final cup stint as a crew chief for Randy Humphrey Racing scoring a best finish of 26th at Watkins Glen International with Nelson Piquet Jr. in Nelson's one and only Cup start.

His final Cup crew chiefing effort came at Charlotte with Corey LaJoie where they would finish 35th.

In a shock to everyone the next race at Kentucky with the combination of Lane and Yeley they would win the pole and finish 18th, this would lead JGL to put Lane in the car with Yeley for the rest of the season where they would rack up 14 top 20's and 4 top 15's.

In 2016 Yeley split from JGL leaving Lane at JGL with new driver Dakoda Armstrong, they performed on a decent level but would split for 4 races however partner backup midway through at Pocono and finish 18th, this led JGL to partner them back up after Iowa for the rest of the season except for the races Dakoda was in with Joe Gibbs Racing in the No.

Whelen Modified Tour driver Danny Bohn would make his Truck Series debut that year for On Point Motorsports, running the last three races of the season in the No.
