The NASCAR Xfinity Series Dash 4 Cash program is back for its third installment of the year and this time around the series heads to Talladega Superspeedway to decide the winner of the $100,000 prize.
Dash 4 Cash kicked off at Atlanta Motor Speedway on June 6, when Noah Gragson won the season’s first bonus.
Then last weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway, AJ Allmendinger grabbed the second $100,000 Dash 4 Cash prize.
As the Xfinity Series heads to Talladega Superspeedway this Saturday for the Unhinged 300 (at 5:30 p.m. ET on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio), Allmendinger, Chase Briscoe, Brandon Jones and Ross Chastain will be the drivers competing for the bonus prize money.
Xfinity is also making donations in each Dash 4 Cash race market to reaffirm their companywide commitment of connecting families, veterans and seniors to the digital tools necessary for navigating these challenging times.
At Talladega Superspeedway the donation will go to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Alabama, which gives young people in need the developmental tools to achieve great futures as productive, responsible citizens in the community. The donation will help with academic and character-building programs to continue through the crisis.
All four drivers will have an uphill climb this weekend to take the Dash 4 Cash prize, but Jones and Briscoe might have a bit of an advantage as both finished in the top-five in this race last season. Chastain has made six series starts at Talladega posting two top-20 finishes and this will be the series track debut for AJ Allmendinger.
Another driver to watch this weekend at Talladega is rising star and Sunoco rookie Harrison Burton, son of NBC Sports TV Analyst and former Cup driver Jeff Burton. The youngster has already won twice this season (California, Homestead-Miami) and has surpassed Carl Edwards’ 2005 rookie record (nine) of the most consecutive top-10 finishes to start the season with 10 top 10s so far in 2020.
