Die Saison der NASCAR Grand National Series 1970 begann am Sonntag, dem 18. Januar, und endete am Sonntag, dem 22. November. Bobby Isaac wurde Meister der Serie, als NASCAR den Übergang von der Grand-National-Ära zur Winston-Cup-Ära vollzog. Nur ein ausländischer Fahrer war in diesem Jahr dabei: der Kanadier Frog Fagan (der den 96. Platz in der Meisterschaftswertung belegte). Es war außerdem die letzte Saison einer nationalen NASCAR-Rennserie mit einem Dirt-Track-Rennen bis zur NASCAR Camping World Truck Series 2013 und das letzte Mal, dass die Cup Series auf Dirt Track fuhr, bis zur NASCAR Cup Series 2021 .
