Seventeen-year-old racing phenom Connor Zilisch made history in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series® race at Circuit of the Americas in March. In his first series qualifying attempt, Zilisch earned the pole with his No. 7 Chevrolet Silverado for Spire Motorsports.
While spotlighting the Austin Hatcher Foundation for pediatric cancer, Zilisch started first and finished an impressive fourth in his series debut. That run has led to an increased number of NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series® races on Zilisch’s schedule in 2024 with the Spire organization.
