Harrison Burton, who was near the bottom of the NASCAR Cup Series standings before his incredible triumph at Daytona International Speedway, is currently in talks with Kaulig Racing over a possible deal for 2025.

Burton’s value in the sport increased dramatically after his victory at the Coke Zero Sugar 400. This victory could not have come at a better moment for the full-time driver who had been finding it difficult to leave a lasting impression. Just when he’s figuring out what to do next, it propels him into the spotlight and creates new opportunities for him in his career.

Burton has piqued the curiosity of Kaulig Racing. According to a story from Motorsports Wire, Chris Rice, the President of Kaulig Racing, revealed on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio that they are in active negotiations with the young driver.

With a spot available in the NASCAR Cup Series for 2025 as well as the NASCAR Xfinity Series, Burton may be able to secure employment in one of these prestigious vehicles. Kaulig is a desirable option for Burton’s future career because of the availability of the No. 16 vehicle in the Xfinity Series and the uncertain situation of the No. 31 car in the Cup Series, pending Daniel Hemric’s comeback.
