With qualifying out of the way, it's on to the Xfinity Series' final race of the regular season on Friday night.

The NASCAR Xfinity Series playoff field was set after Friday's Food City 300 at Bristol, with Cole Custer winning the race and the regular season points title. But Justin Allgaier comes into the first playoff race as the playoff points leader, 27 points ahead of the cutoff line.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. says he anticipates that tonight's Xfinity Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway will be his final series race to at least 2026. Earnhardt, who turns 50 in October, said Friday afternoon that there is no sponsor requirement that he race next year.
