ARCA Leader Brenden ‘Butterbean’ Queen to Make Xfinity Debut With Kaulig at Bristol on Sept. 12

The 27-year-old short-track standout steps into Kaulig’s rotating No. 11 entry following the team’s midseason shakeup.

Overview

  • Kaulig Racing confirmed Queen will drive the No. 11 Chevrolet in the Xfinity race at Bristol Motor Speedway on September 12.
  • Team president Chris Rice said the organization is excited to support Queen’s next step after his strong ARCA campaign.
  • Queen leads the ARCA Menards Series standings with six wins in his first full-time season for Pinnacle Racing Group.
  • He brings limited but notable Truck Series experience, including a fourth-place debut at North Wilkesboro and additional starts in 2025 with Spire Motorsports and TRICON Garage.
