KHI Management announced Tuesday that the marketing agency has signed NASCAR Next driver Harrison Burton to its list of clients.

Burton, who turned 16 on Sunday, is the son of former Sprint Cup Series driver Jeff Burton, who currently provides on-air analysis for NBC Sports. He also is a member of the current class of drivers in the NASCAR Next program, an initiative designed to highlight the young crop of new talent climbing the stock-car racing ladder.

The younger Burton, who has already established himself as a talent in asphalt Late Model competition, is scheduled to make his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut for Kyle Busch Motorsports on Oct. 29 at Martinsville Speedway. Burton logged a seventh-place finish in the standings this year in his first full season in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East.

KHI Management — co-owned by DeLana and Kevin Harvick — represents several prominent figures in the sports, broadcasting and music industries. In addition to both Jeff and Harrison Burton, KHI Management counts celebrities in MMA, motocross, golf and country music among its clients.
