The 2024 Tennessee Lottery 250 was the 17th stock car race of the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series, and the 4th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, June 29, 2024, in Lebanon, Tennessee at Nashville Superspeedway, a 1.333 miles (2.145 km) permanent tri-oval shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 188 laps to complete. John Hunter Nemechek, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would take the lead from Cole Custer late in the race, and led the final 46 laps to earn his 11th career NASCAR Xfinity Series win, and his second of the season.[8] Nemechek also dominated the majority of the race, leading a race-high 76 laps. To fill out the podium, Chandler Smith, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, and Jesse Love, driving for Richard Childress Racing, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively. This was the last full-time start for Hailie Deegan as she would be replaced by Joey Logano at the Chicago Street Course and other drivers replacing her.

Background

[edit]
Nashville Superspeedway, the place where the race was held.

Nashville Superspeedway is a motor racing complex located in Lebanon, Tennessee, United States, about 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Nashville. The track was built in 2001 and is currently used for events, driving schools and GT Academy, a reality television competition.

It is a concrete oval track 1+13 miles (2.146 km) long. Nashville Superspeedway is owned by Speedway Motorsports, which also owns many other NASCAR tracks. Nashville Superspeedway was the longest concrete oval in NASCAR during the time it was on the NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series circuits. Current permanent seating capacity is approximately 25,000. Additional portable seats are brought in for some events, and seating capacity can be expanded to 150,000. Infrastructure is in place to expand the facility to include a short track, drag strip, and road course.

Qualifying

[edit]

Qualifying was held on Saturday, June 29, at 11:30 AM EST.[9] Since Nashville Superspeedway is an intermediate speedway, the qualifying system used is a single-car, single-lap system with only one round. All drivers will be on track by themselves and will have one lap to post a qualifying time. Whoever sets the fastest time in that session will win the pole.[10]

Ty Gibbs, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would score the pole for the race, with a lap of 30.876, and a speed of 155.072 mph (249.564 km/h).[11]

Jade Buford was the only driver who failed to qualify.
