Jeb Burton is set to return back behind the wheel as the Virginia native will drive the No. 98 Estes Ford at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 23 and Richmond International Raceway September 9 for Biagi-DenBeste Racing.
Burton previously drove the No. 98 Ford in 2014, finishing 15th at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Since then, Burton has ran 11 NASCAR XFINITY Series races with Richard Petty Motorsports with one top-10 and four top-15 finishes.
“I’m really excited to get back on the track in the XFINITY Series with Biagi-DenBeste Racing,” said Burton. “They’ve shown they have fast cars and just scored a big win at Daytona,” said Burton. “I’m thrilled to again partner with Estes. They are a great company and have been big supporters of my career.”
Estes Express Lines is a full-service freight transportation provider, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. The company previously sponsored Burton in both the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and Camping World Truck Series.
“We’re proud of our association with this Virginia native who has gone on to gain national recognition,” Estes President and CEO Rob Estes weighed in on the sponsorship. “It’s exciting to once again support him as he takes to the track in the No. 98 Estes Ford in Indianapolis and Richmond. We want to thank our vendors who helped make sponsoring these two races a reality. The Estes team is very excited to be part of the 2016 season, and our 16,000 employees nationwide will definitely be rooting for him.”
