Big Machine Racing’s 2023 NASCAR Xfinity Series season in review

Big Machine Racing had a solid year in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. Here, you can check out the NASCAR team’s 2023 season in review!

[autotag]Big Machine Racing[/autotag] has only employed a full-time driver once with Jade Buford in 2019; however, Parker Kligerman joined the exclusive list in a big way during the 2023 NASCAR season. Kligemran made the 2023 playoffs before being eliminated in the Round of 12. It was a very impressive season for the driver of the No. 48 car.

Kligerman earned eight top-5 finishes and 18 top-10 finishes while earning a 13.2 average finishing position. The Big Machine Racing driver ended the year with a 10th-place finish in the point standings, exceeding expectations. Buford was the only other driver to make a start for the race team, but he didn’t earn any top-10 finishes.

The 33-year-old driver will return to the No. 48 Xfinity car for Big Machine Racing in 2024, and it couldn’t be a better fit. Kligerman came close to winning on multiple occasions in 2023 and could be looking at a trophy by this time next year. Big Machine Racing has a lot to look forward to with Kligerman as their driver in 2024.

Parker Kligerman returning to Big Machine Racing in Xfinity Series for 2024

Parker Kligerman will return to the No. 48 car on a full-time basis for Big Machine Racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series for the 2024 season.

[autotag]Big Machine Racing[/autotag] announced on Thursday morning that [autotag]Parker Kligerman[/autotag] will return to the No. 48 car in the NASCAR Xfinity Series next season. Kligerman, 33, has five top-5 finishes, 12 top-10 finishes, and a 13.9 average finishing position through 23 races during the 2023 NASCAR season.

The driver of the No. 48 car currently sits three points below the playoff cut-line with three races left in the Xfinity Series regular season at Daytona, Darlington, and Kansas. Kligerman has five straight top-10 finishes and has earned the fifth-most points of any driver in the series over that period of time.

 

Kligerman will now officially have a second full-time season with Big Machine Racing after finding his groove as of late. The hope from the No. 48 team and the NASCAR organization is that Kligerman is able to claw his way into the playoffs. It would be Big Machine Racing’s first playoff berth in its existence.
