Estes Express Lines and State Water Heaters to Sponsor Jeb Burton's Return to XFINITY Series

Estes Express Lines and State Water Heaters will sponsor Jeb Burton's return to the NASCAR XFINITY Series beginning next month at the Richmond International Raceway. Burton will pilot the No. 3 Chevrolet Camaro for Richard Childress Racing. He's sharing the ride with Austin and Ty Dillon, Brendan Gaughan, and Shane Lee over the course of the 2018 XFINITY Series season.

"Estes Express Lines and State Water Heaters have supported me throughout my racing career, and it means a lot to me as I join RCR for several events this season," said Burton. "I'm looking forward to having them along for the ride and hosting their customers, employees, and guests at the race track."

In 22 starts in the NASCAR XFINITY Series the son of 2002 Daytona 500 Champion Ward Burton has the best finish of fourth at Daytona last July. The Halifax, Virginia native also has 51 starts in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, with one victory, and 30 starts in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. Burton has driven for multiple teams including JGL Racing, the late Turner-Scott Motorsports, Richard Petty Motorsports, BK Racing, among others in those starts.

On top of sponsoring Burton in his slate of races, Estes Express Lanes will be an associate sponsor for additional races on the No. 3 Chevrolet Camaro.

"Estes is proud to have its name on a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet Camaro and support Jeb as he takes the next step in his racing career," said Rob Estes, President and CEO of Estes Express Lines. "The Burton and Estes families share deep Virginia roots, and we love nothing more than cheering for the home team." (Koelle,2018)
