She made her NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut in March 2008 at Martinsville Speedway, finishing 18th in the No. 03 Toyota for Germain Racing.[3] She raced in six races that season. In 2009, Wallace finished a career-best 13th in the Mountain Dew 250 at Talladega Superspeedway in the No. 08 Chevrolet for SS-Green Light Racing.

In 2010, she made her NASCAR Nationwide Series debut in the DRIVE4COPD 300 at Daytona. Driving the No. 41 Chevrolet, she started 35th and finished 43rd after crashing on the first lap. Wallace also made the Aaron's 312 at Talladega, finishing 24th in the No. 0 for JD Motorsports.

In 2011, Wallace became the first woman to win an American Speed Association Late Model track championship at Lebanon I-44 Speedway,[4] the same track where her father Mike won the championship in 1990.
