Dylan Lupton (born December 7, 1993) is an American professional driver. He currently competes part-time in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, driving the No. 24 Toyota Camry for JGL Racing.
Lupton began racing in 2010 in the Langers Juice S-2 Sportsman Series, which was a championship with fourteen races and those were all at Irwindale Event Center, then known as Toyota Speedway. Lupton managed to win three races and became champion with High Point Racing just two points in front of teammate Roman Lagudi. In 2011 he got two partial rides in the K&N Pro Series West. He drove one race for team owner Greg Rayl and two races for team owner BIll McAnally, including races at All American Speedway and the new Phoenix International Raceway. His best result of the season was a 12th place at Montana Raceway Park. In 2013 and 2014 he got a full ride at Sunrise Ford Racing in the K&N Pro Series West and became runner-up in 2014 seventeen points behind two-time champion Greg Pursley. He won twice, in 2013 at Evergreen Speedway and in 2014 at Kern County Raceway Park. In 2015 he drove one K&N Pro Series East race at Watkins Glen – he managed to take 4th place – to gain road course experience, because he would drive for Athenian Motorsports in the Nationwide Children's Hospital 200 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.
On February 16, 2015, it was announced that Lupton had been signed by Athenian Motorsports to compete part-time in the 2015 NASCAR Xfinity Series. Lupton was hired to run a minimum of seven races in the No. 25 starting at Phoenix International Raceway, with continued sponsorship from Zaxby's. After finishing twice in the top 20 after driving five races for Athenian Motorsports, he finished 9th at Mid-Ohio. Lupton started another road course race at Road America, finishing 13th.
