● Sonoma Raceway | Pit Boss / FoodMaxx 250 Race Recap: The NASCAR Xfinity Series made the cross-country trek to Northern California for a date with the twists and turns of Sonoma Raceway — with AM Racing eying their eighth top-10 finish of the season.
Spending most of practice in race trim, Harrison Burton posted the 13th-fastest lap overall, giving the No. 25 team confidence heading into qualifying. However, Burton couldn’t crack the top 10 and settled for a 19th-place starting spot—his 12th top-20 qualifying effort of the season.
At the drop of the green flag, Burton began working his way toward the top-10. Despite battling grip issues, he stayed focused and consistent, logging competitive laps while managing the car’s handling. A well-timed strategy call at the end of Stage 2 vaulted him into the top-10.
As he fought to defend his track position and maximize Xfinity Series points, Burton was spun by another competitor late in Stage 3.
The incident dropped him outside the top 20, relegating him to 26th. With no caution to regroup the field, Burton made the most of the final laps and rallied to a 21st-place finish.

Harrison Burton Quoteboard:
On Dover Motor Speedway: “I enjoy competing at Dover Motor Speedway. It’s a fast track, but things happen in a hurry, and it’s a place where rhythm and handling are super important.
“You’ve got to stay mentally locked in every lap because the track can bite you if you’re not careful. It’s one of those places where, if you can get your car balanced right and find a groove, it’s incredibly fun to race.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge and seeing what we can do this weekend.”
On Keys to Success at Dover Motor Speedway: “Track position is super important at Dover Motor Speedway. The laps go by in a hurry, and the closer you are to the front, the better your chances are of staying out of trouble and delivering a satisfying finish.
“It’s one of those places where clean air matters, and once you lose ground, it can be tough to make it back without strategy or a timely caution. Starting up front gives you a little more control over your race.”
On Battle for Playoff Cutline: “The Xfinity Series cutoff position is incredibly tight right now. Honestly, it would be even tighter if we hadn’t gotten spun late at Sonoma — that one stung. But we can’t dwell on it. We’ve got to reset, refocus and be ready for battle every single week.
“Over the next month and a half, we need to start stacking up stage points and avoid any unnecessary setbacks. Consistency is going to be key.
“Of course, if we can get this AM Racing team to Victory Lane, that changes everything. It takes the pressure off and gives us a chance to regroup and really focus on chasing a championship.”
On Sonoma Raceway Finish: “Like I said, the finish at Sonoma stung. What made it even tougher to swallow was getting spun by a driver who doesn’t race full-time. I’m not saying it was entirely his fault, but we definitely paid the price with how things turned out.
“I was really hoping we’d get a caution to regroup and charge back toward the top-10, but that break never came. We had to dig deep and fight hard to salvage a 21st-place finish.”
On 2025 Season Outlook: “I still genuinely believe we can continue to turn some heads in 2025. Now that we’re past the halfway point, our goals haven’t changed, they’re still within reach.
“This AM Racing team has what it takes to fight our way above the Playoff cutline and stay there.
“We’ve got a great group of people and partners who continue to believe in what we’re building. Nothing would mean more to me than delivering AM Racing its first Xfinity Series win, locking into the Playoffs, and making a serious run at the championship.”
