A total of 39 cars will contest the NASCAR Xfinity Series’ return to the East Coast at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend.

One car will fail to qualify for the Raptor King of Tough 250, barring any entry list changes.

Sage Karam will attempt his season debut, driving the No. 45 for Alpha Prime Racing. Karam made nine Xfinity starts in 2022, with a best finish of fifth at Daytona International Speedway.

Justin Haley is back in the No. 10 for Kaulig Racing after a three-race absence.

Though Timmy Hill is currently listed in MBM Motorsports’ No. 66, Caesar Bacarella will drive the car, it was announced earlier March 13. Bacarella was initially entered in a fourth car for APR, the No. 42, that has since been withdrawn.

The No. 74 for CHK Racing is listed without a driver. Ryan Vargas competed in the car the first three races of 2023, followed by Dawson Cram at Phoenix Raceway.

Chad Chastain will attempt his Xfinity debut in DGM Racing’s No. 91.

The Raptor King of Tough 250 is scheduled for Saturday, March 18, at 5 p.m. ET. FOX Sports 1 will handle TV coverage.
