Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport solidified its driver lineup for the upcoming NASCAR Xfinity Series season with the announcement that Jeb Burton is returning for his third season and the addition of Blaine Perkins to the stable. Both drivers will race a full-time Xfinity Series schedule.
Anderson commented in a press release: “The journey from a single-car operation to where we are now speaks to our team’s perseverance and growth mindset. Having Jeb return as the veteran to our program will continue to add depth and the experience needed to take us to the next level.
“I’m grateful to Parker Retzlaff’s efforts these last two seasons in the No. 31 and the opportunity to assist in his growth as a driver as he continues to move up the ranks. We have the same vision with Blaine next season, and plan to give him all the tools, and opportunities, to continue developing as a driver on and off the track.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to keep expanding our program with focused drivers, dedicated team members, and committed partners who believe in our shared vision for the organization.”
Last season Burton had three Top 10 finishes and led eight laps to finish 19th in the final driver standings. In 2023 Burton and Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport won their first race with a victory at AG-Pro 300 at Talladega Superspeedway.
“Coming back for a third season with Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport means a lot to me,” said Burton.
“We’re building something special here, and I’m ready to carry the momentum forward into 2025. It’s a privilege to work with this team, and I’m grateful to Jordan, John, Shane, and all our great partners involved for their belief in what we’re doing. I’m looking forward to putting this Chevrolet back up-front next season and giving our fans something to cheer for.”
Perkins, a Bakersfield, California native, drove for RSS Racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series last season but didn’t garner a win or a Top 10 finish. In his 75 career NASCAR Xfinity Series races he has a single Top 10 finish and has led three laps.
“Joining Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport is an exciting step in my career development,” said Perkins.
“To be part of such a dedicated Chevrolet organization with a team that shares a passion for growth and success is a fantastic opportunity. I’m looking forward to representing the team and all our partners with everything I have and making the most of the 2025 season.”
