Harrison Burton will remain in the NASCAR Cup Series with Wood Brothers Racing in 2024. Burton confirmed the news on Saturday (Sept. 30) afternoon at Talladega Superspeedway.
Burton is currently in his sophomore season with the iconic Wood Brothers team. The No. 21 team currently sits 31st in Cup points.
“At the end of the day, it’s fairly easy for me because I am happy where I’m at, and I hope to continue to race where I’m at,” Burton said. “It’s fairly easy for me to kind of just go to work with the guys that I’ve worked with for the last year and a half or so, and yeah, it’s not super distracting at this point.”
Burton has two top-10 finishes on the season with his best result coming at Darlington in May. His career-best finish of third occurred at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course in 2022.
For 2024, Burton will stick with his new crew chief Jeremy Bullins, who moved from the No. 2 team this year. The duo will continue chasing after win number 100 for the Wood Brothers next season.
