Description

The 2024 Andy's Frozen Custard 300 was the 8th stock car race of the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series, and the 20th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, April 13, 2024, at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas, a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) permanent asphalt quad-oval shaped intermediate speedway. The race took the scheduled 200 laps to complete. In one of the closest finishes in Xfinity Series history, Sam Mayer, driving for JR Motorsports, would make a last-lap pass for the lead on Ryan Sieg, and held him off in a wild photo finish to earn his fifth career NASCAR Xfinity Series win, and his first of the season. The margin of victory was 0.002 seconds, tying it for the second closest finish in Xfinity Series history, alongside Milwaukee 1996 and Talladega 1999. Sieg led 17 of the final 18 laps in the race, before being passed by Mayer on the final lap. Justin Allgaier was most consistent driver of the race, winning both stages and leading a race-high 117 laps, but ultimately fell back and rounded out the podium by finishing 3rd.

This was also the second race of the Dash 4 Cash. Drivers who were eligible for the Dash 4 Cash are Sam Mayer, Chandler Smith, Justin Allgaier, and Sheldon Creed, since they were the highest finishing Xfinity Series regulars following the race at Martinsville. Mayer would claim the $100K bonus cash after narrowly winning the race.
