During this same year, he also competed in the NASA Pro Series in Texas taking 2 wins and 5 top fives finishing 7th in the region.
In 2014, Nate moved to the Pirelli World Challenge, fielding a Ford Fiesta in the Touring Car/ Spec B class. In the 14 race season he finished second overall in drive’s points (1265) with a dominating win a Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and 7 other podium finishes throughout the season.
