Count NASCAR Xfinity Series championship leader Elliott Sadler among those most eager to strap into his race car for Friday’s Alsco 300 (at 8 p.m. ET on NBCSN, PRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). The Kentucky Speedway is home to the veteran’s last series win 55 races ago.
He has nine top-10 finishes in 13 Xfinity races at the track, including five top-five efforts. And Sadler is coming off a runner-up finish at Daytona last weekend to re-take the championship lead. He has 14 top-10 efforts in 16 races this season.
The JR Motorsports driver may well need all the knowledge and experience he’s collected here because recently this venue has been a place for brand new winners – boasting six first-time series winners. Tyler Reddick joined that list just last year and four of the six earned their win in the summer running of the race.
