Description The Virginia is for Racing Lovers 250 was a NASCAR Xfinity Series race that took place at Richmond Raceway in Richmond, Virginia. The race was first held during the inaugural season for the Xfinity Series in 1982 as a 150-lap event. The race was removed from the schedule after 1984. It returned to the series starting in 1990 as a 200 lap race. It was expanded to 250 lap distance in 1994. In 2016, as part of an overhauling of the Richmond spring race weekend, including the new Dash4Cash format, the total of 210-laps and had two 35-lap heat races and a 140-lap feature. In 2017, the heat races were discontinued (as a result of stage racing being implemented that year), and the race returned to its 250-lap distance with the new stage format: stages 1 and 2 were 75 laps long, and stage 3 made up the remaining 100 laps.
Justin Allgaier proved himself tops again — winning Saturday afternoon’s Virginia is for Racing Lovers 250 at Richmond Raceway answering a hard-fought victory Friday night and sweeping the Xfinity Series weekend doubleheader.
Allgaier’s No. 7 JR Motorsports Chevrolet dominated the afternoon leading a race best 135 of the 250 laps and holding off his teammate Jeb Burton by a healthy 2.185 seconds for his third win of the season. It is the 14th victory of the 34-year-old Illinois native’s career, and Allgaier’s 770 total laps led in 2020 are the most of any driver this season.
The runner-up showing for Burton is a career-best effort in the series. Ross Chastain finished third followed by Burton’s 19-year-old cousin Harrison Burton in fourth and Chastain’s Kaulig Racing teammate Justin Haley in fifth.
