● Game On: The Ford Driving for a Difference presented by the Gene Haas Foundation is a five-week competition among the five full-time Ford teams competing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Teams from AM Racing, the Haas Factory Team, and RSS Racing will go head-to-head for the highest cumulative finishing position across a stretch of select races.
The team with the most points at the end of the challenge will earn a generous donation to their designated charity courtesy of the Gene Haas Foundation. In contrast, all participating teams will receive a contribution in recognition of their efforts.
AM Racing has selected All Within My Hands, the charitable foundation founded by the legendary rock band Metallica, as its charity of choice.
The program not only fuels on-track competition but also drives meaningful impact off the track through charitable giving.
The initiative launched at Charlotte Motor Speedway on May 24, 2025, and continued at Nashville Superspeedway on May 31 and last weekend’s Xfinity Series road course at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez.
This weekend is the finale at “The Tricky Triangle,” Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania.
● Critical Summer Stretch: Pocono Raceway continues a pivotal nine-week stretch that will help shape the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoff picture ahead of the postseason opener at Bristol Motor Speedway in September.
The series will visit a wide variety of tracks over the coming weeks, offering a mix of challenges and styles. The stretch includes the 2.5-mile Pocono Raceway this weekend, a return trip to the hybrid superspeedway of EchoPark Speedway, the Chicago Street Course and another road course at Sonoma Raceway in Northern California.
From there, teams will take on the high-banked concrete of Dover Motor Speedway, then head to the iconic yard of bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, followed by Iowa Speedway, before wrapping up the stretch on August 9 at Watkins Glen International — a renowned road course in the Finger Lakes region of New York.
● Up Close and Personal: For this weekend’s NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Pocono Raceway, Harrison Burton will carry an in-car camera, offering fans multiple dynamic views from inside the No. 25 DEX Imaging Ford Mustang.

He returned to the track a month after his initial start, winning the pole but finishing 37th following a crash on Lap 36 of 90.
Additionally, Burton carries an average Xfinity track finish of 34.5.
Also, the Huntersville, N.C. native has three NASCAR Cup Series starts at Pocono Raceway, with a track-best of eighth after starting 26th in the 2023 edition of the HighPoint.com 400, while driving for Wood Brothers Racing.
● Harrison Burton NASCAR Xfinity Series Career Stats: Entering Pocono, Burton has 90 career NASCAR Xfinity Series starts to his credit with four wins, 27 top-five and 55 top-10 finishes, and a championship-best result of eighth, twice in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
Burton’s four wins in the NASCAR Xfinity Series occurred during the 2020 season. Burton, the son of former NASCAR driver and current television analyst Jeff Burton, captured the checkered flag at Auto Club (Calif.) Speedway, Homestead-Miami (Fla.)

● Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez | The Chilango 150 Race Recap: NASCAR went south of the border this past weekend as the NASCAR Xfinity Series returned to Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, joining the NASCAR Cup Series in the heart of Mexico City.
Sporting the AirBox colors for the first time in 2025, Harrison Burton showed promise early with a solid 17th-place effort in practice. However, he settled for the 22nd-fastest lap in time trials.
From the drop of the green flag, Burton faced an uphill battle with track position and an early race spin. Still, crew chief Danny Efland orchestrated a strong strategy that vaulted the team into the top five during Stage 3.
While continuing to battle the balance of his No. 25 AirBox Ford Mustang, Burton held steady inside the top-10, ultimately securing a ninth-place finish at the checkered flag.
The resilient run marked the team’s seventh top-10 finish of the season.

Harrison Burton Quoteboard:
On Pocono Raceway: “I’m really excited to be back in the Xfinity Series this weekend at Pocono. It’s a place that’s always challenged me as a driver in the Xfinity Series, but I’ve also had speed here in the past.
“We’ve been building momentum, and I’m hoping we can put together a clean race and come out of the weekend with something to show for it.”
On Keys to Success at Pocono Raceway: “Pocono’s such a unique track with its three different corners, so it’s all about compromise and execution. You’ve got to be good on restarts, make the right calls on pit road, and stay disciplined through all three turns.
“If we can hit our marks and make smart adjustments, I think we’ll be in a good spot by the end.”
On Goals for Pocono Raceway: “Our goal at Pocono is to run a smart, strategic race and be in position when it counts. Track position and pit calls are everything here, so if we can stay ahead of the curve, we’ve got a shot at making something happen.
“We’ve shown we can run inside the top-10, and with the Playoffs getting closer, every point matters. We’re focused on building momentum and making the most of these opportunities.”
On Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez Finish: “That was a hard-fought ninth-place finish for our team. We had to overcome a lot — starting deep in the field, going for a spin early, and fighting the balance most of the day.
“But Danny (Efland) called a great race, and we kept digging. To come out of Mexico City with a top-10 and some solid points is something we can definitely build on moving forward.”
On 2025 Season Outlook: “I truly believe we can turn some heads in 2025. The goals we’ve set for ourselves aren’t just realistic—they’re within reach, and I know this AM Racing team has what it takes to execute and get into the Playoffs.”
“We’ve got a great group of people and partners who are fully behind what we’re building this season. Nothing would mean more to me than delivering AM Racing its first Xfinity Series win, locking into the Playoffs, and making a run at the championship.”
“It’s shaping up to be a really fun and exciting year.”
