Burton Draws Pole For Saturday Xfinity Race

CONCORD, N.C. – Harrison Burton has drawn the pole and will lead the field to the green flag during Saturday’s NASCAR Xfinity Series Hooters 250 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Burton, driver of the No. 20 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing, was selected to start from the pole via a random draw that set the starting lineup for Saturday’s race. He’ll be joined on the front row by JR Motorsports driver Noah Gragson.

Starting positions 1-12 were randomly drawn from the first 12 teams based on the Adverse Conditions Line Up Eligibility. Positions 13-24 and positions 25-36 were determined the same way. Any other eligible teams were assigned positions 37-40 based on their order of eligibility.

Ross Chastain is scheduled to start third, followed by Brandon Jones, Brandon Brown, Riley Herbst, Ryan Sieg, Chase Briscoe, Austin Cindric and Justin Haley.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., who is making his only scheduled start of the season in the No. 8 Chevrolet for JR Motorsports, will start 12th.

The lineup for Sunday’s NASCAR Xfinity Series Contender Boats 250 will be set based on the finish order of Saturday’s Hooters 250, with the top-20 finishers inverted for Sunday’s race.
