Harrison Burton Earns Second Career ARCA Victory at Pocono

Harrison Burton ran away from his teammates with 10 laps remaining and earned his second career victory in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards. He took the lead on lap 72 and continued to push away from teammates Sheldon Creed and Zane Smith and never looked back.

"That was awesome," said Burton. "It's my first superspeedway race, but it doesn't matter to us. I have the best team behind me. This win is for John Andretti. Their family is going through a lot right now. He's the toughest guy on the planet. If anyone can do it, he can."

Creed finished second for the third time in his career. Zane Smith finished third while Travis Braden and Riley Herbst rounded out the top five.
