“I really wanted to make my Xfinity debut for sure on a mile-and-a-half (track) because that’s where I feel most comfortable,” Deegan said in her announcement video.

Deegan is in the midst of her second full-time season in the Truck Series, where she drives the No. 1 Monster Energy Ford with David Gilliland Racing. Deegan said plans for racing in 2023 are not yet set.

“I wish I knew and had it figured it out already,” Deegan said, “but we’re still working through a few things.”

Deegan, 21, just posted a career-best finish of sixth at Talladega Superspeedway, her second top-10 finish of the Truck season and third of her career. The Temecula, California native scored three victories in ARCA West, including a two-win campaign in 2019.
