Nick Leitz, a seasoned Late Model racer and occasional NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series competitor, is gearing up for a significant milestone in his racing career as he prepares to make his debut in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Kansas Speedway this weekend.

Hailing from Chesapeake, Virginia, Nick Leitz's journey into the NASCAR Xfinity Series is an exciting one. He's already made a mark with a couple of Truck Series appearances earlier this season at Kansas Speedway and Nashville Superspeedway.

In those outings, Leitz showcased his talent with impressive performances, consistently landing within the top 21. Notably, he achieved his best result at the 1.33-mile Nashville Superspeedway, securing a commendable 19th place.

Looking ahead, Leitz's racing calendar includes another Truck Series event, where he'll be behind the wheel of the No. 20 Young’s Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado RST at Homestead-Miami Speedway in October.

The Kansas Lottery 300 at Kansas Speedway, scheduled for this Saturday afternoon, is set to be a momentous occasion. It will mark Nick Leitz's inaugural appearance in the Xfinity series at this 1.5-mile track.

However, Nick Leitz isn't entirely new to the Kansas Speedway. He previously competed in the Truck Series in Kansas City back in May, impressively finishing 21st despite starting from the 31st position. This race was conducted under the Young's Motorsports banner, based in Mooresville, North Carolina.
