● Rockingham (N.C.) Speedway | North Carolina Education Lottery 250 Race Recap: The NASCAR Xfinity Series made its long-awaited return to Rockingham Speedway over Easter weekend, marking the series’ first visit to the historic North Carolina oval in more than two decades.
Young’s Motorsports entered the weekend with optimism, building on a top-20 showing in Friday’s practice session. However, qualifying on Saturday proved challenging, with Anthony Alfredo securing the 34th starting spot in the No. 42 Randco Chevrolet, near the rear of the 38-car field.
Despite the setback, Alfredo wasted no time making up ground. From the drop of the green flag, his pace improved dramatically. Through a combination of sharp racecraft and smart strategy, Alfredo climbed through the pack and earned valuable stage points in both Stage 1 and Stage 2—collecting 13 total stage points for the Mooresville, N.C.-based team.
Strategic calls left Alfredo buried in traffic to start Stage 3, but with calculated moves and a touch of good fortune, he navigated his way to an initial 16th-place finish at the checkered flag.
That result was later upgraded to 15th following the post-race disqualification of the original race winner, securing Alfredo’s second consecutive top-15 finish.
With 10 races now completed, the No. 42 team continues to build momentum and hopes for further improvement as the season heads into its summer stretch.
The group is focused on lowering its current average finish of 24.7 and continuing their upward trajectory.

● Young’s Motorsports’ NASCAR Xfinity Series at Talladega Superspeedway: This weekend’s Ag-Pro 300 will mark Young’s Motorsports’ third NASCAR Xfinity Series appearance at the high-speed, high-stakes Talladega Superspeedway.
The team made headlines in their Talladega debut last April when rookie Leland Honeyman Jr. delivered a breakout performance. After starting 33rd, Honeyman surged through the field to finish fourth, earning the family-owned operation its best-ever result in the Xfinity Series.
They returned to the 2.66-mile Alabama superspeedway last October, aiming to replicate the spring success.
Despite a chaotic, attrition-filled race, Honeyman managed a respectable 14th-place finish after rolling off 19th.
Beyond their growing Xfinity résumé, the Mooresville, N.C.-based organization brings a wealth of experience at Talladega through their NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series program.
Since 2014, Young’s Motorsports has made 19 Truck Series starts at the track, earning two victories — most recently in October 2021 with Tate Fogleman.
Across those appearances, the team averages a starting position of 22.7 and a finishing position of 17.8.
