Fukuyama made his debut in NASCAR competition driving in exhibition races at Suzuka Circuit in 1996 and 1997 for Travis Carter Enterprises, and at Twin Ring Motegi in 1998 for Jeff Davis Racing.[3] He crashed in the inaugural Suzuka Thunder Special in 1996,[4] finishing 22nd;[5] in 1997 he finished 21st, retiring with ignition failure after 103 laps.[6] In Motegi's Coca-Cola 500 he finished 17th in the No. 98 Ford.[7]

In 1998 and 1999 Fukuyama competed in two events in the NASCAR Winston West Series, at Pikes Peak International Raceway in 1998, where he finished 19th, and in the first NASCAR points event held outside of North America,[8] at Twin Ring Motegi in 1999, where he finished 15th.[9][10]

Having been encouraged to pursue a NASCAR career by Dale Earnhardt,[11] and in September at Dover International Speedway became the first Japanese driver to qualify for a Winston Cup Series points event.[12] Driving the No. 66 Ford for Haas-Carter Motorsports, he started 43rd in the event,[11] finishing 39th due to transmission failure.[13] Later that year at Martinsville Speedway he finished 43rd in the second and final race of the year he qualified for.[14]

In 2003, Fukuyama competed for Rookie of the Year in the Winston Cup Series,[15] running a limited schedule in Cup as well as in the ARCA Racing Series for Carter, the team being renamed BelCar Racing.[3] He only qualified for two races, at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and Infineon Raceway, posting his best career finish, 33rd, at the former track.[16]

Released from his ride with TCM midway through the 2003 season, Fukuyama returned to his native Japan, where he resumed racing in the Super GT series,[2] as well as becoming an analyst for Japanese television broadcasts of NASCAR.[17]
