10 NASCAR Drivers with Top 10 Xfinity Finishes with Justin Allgaier


Justin Allgaier reached a major career milestone this past weekend when he recorded his 300th Xfinity Series top 10 and cemented his place as NASCAR’s all-time leader in the second tier. He accomplished the feat during playoff weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, highlighting the difficulty of consistently delivering results in a series defined by turnovers, trophy rings and resource gaps.

The Xfinity Series has long been the Cup’s feeder category. It develops young drivers and keeps seasoned veterans sharp. However, this role also breeds instability. Roster changes are common as the odds rise. Cup drivers occasionally race part-time in Xfinity cars, adding more variables to the weekly leaderboard and ultimately making consistency rare in the series.

Here are 10 drivers with the top 10 finishes in NASCAR Xfinity Series history.
