Season 1 Overview
Cody Ware qualified 15th for the first Cardboard Cup Series event, the TinkerChest 200. The green flag flew, and Cody started to work his way to the front. Entering the 2nd lap, he would climb up the field to 10th, before falling back to 16th 2 laps later. Cody would remain 16th until the last lap, where the leader would get caught up in a wreck. He finished 15th, just ahead of Brad Keselowski.

Cody would qualify 12th at Daytona. Once the green flag flew, he pushed Aric Almirola through the first few laps. After support from his line was lost, Cody moved to the middle line. Immediately after, the caution came out for a big wreck on the front-stretch. He would restart 12th, on the top line. He would retain his position until the white flag, where he would begin to slip back. After falling to the rear of the middle line, Cody would finish 17th.

At Bristol, Cody qualified 24th. After taking the green flag, he would battle his teammate, Bayley Currey, for the first few laps. Eventually, Cody let Bayley by him. On lap 3, he got caught by the leaders, and got lapped. After a minor caution, Cody would re-pass Bayley for 23rd position. On the final lap, he would also get past Ross Chastain, picking up 22nd position. He would finish 22nd, 1 lap off pace.

Cody qualified for the Haryel's 304 in 18th position. Over the course of the first 3 laps, he would fall to 23rd. Entering lap 4, he got caught up in a multi-car incident, with Joey Gase and Corey LaJoie. Cody would DNF after his damage clock expired. He was given a 26th place finish, his first last place of the season.

At Indianapolis, Cody would qualify 20th. During the first few laps, he would fall to 24th. After getting caught by the leaders on lap 4, he went a lap down. He started to gain upon the #77 of Garrett Smithley, but there weren't sufficient laps to catch Smithley. Instead, he collected 23rd position when Martin Truex, Jr. slammed the inside wall, and called it a day. This was his third sup-20 finish in a row.
