While it's clear that Gilliland will be present at Harrison Burton and Jenna Petty's wedding, in 2025, they will not be racing together. Both Burton and Gilliland raced in the Cup Series in 2024, but next year, their destination is different.

While Gilliland will remain with Front Row Motorsports and drive the #34 Ford Mustang Dark Horse in the Cup Series, Burton will move to the second-tier stock car racing series, the Xfinity Series.

He will drive the #15 Ford Mustang for AM Racing after he was replaced by Josh Berry of the now-defunct Stewart-Haas Racing at Wood Brothers Racing. Despite the loss of a seat, Burton had a fantastic season in 2024.

The former WBR driver claimed his first Cup Series victory in the 2024 Coke Zero Sugar at Daytona International Speedway and qualified for the NASCAR playoffs. He wrapped up his season in 16th place with 2122 points, a win, a Top 5, and two Top 10s.
