CHAPTER 384 Ft. Connor Zilisch

Connor Zilisch, NASCAR’s rising star, joins us for Chapter 384. His journey didn’t follow the traditional American racing path. It started in go-karts, where he became a world champion and beat drivers who now compete in Formula 1. Many believed his future was overseas chasing the F1 dream, but Connor’s road led him back home. Instead of Europe, he chose to build his career racing NASCAR here in America. Ten victories in his rookie Xfinity Series season later, he’s now making the jump to the Cup Series, stepping into the arena with the very best in the sport. This is the story of a young driver who took a different path and might just change NASCAR because of it.
