NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Connor Zilisch has signed with Spire Motorsports for a Truck Series race entry at the Charlotte Roval. He will manage racing in both series that weekend.
Zilisch is currently focused on the Xfinity Series championship with the upcoming race at Kansas, followed by the elimination race at the Roval. But with a Truck race on the cards, it could offer him a double advantage.
The 19-year-old driver has never raced at the Roval before. But with him being a master on road courses, Spire could secure a win with him at the road-oval hybrid circuit. Zilisch has not won a Truck race before, and this could be a great chance for him to tick one off the list before his full-time Cup Series debut next year with Trackhouse Racing.
Zilisch’s earlier Truck race at Watkins Glen saw him finish in eighth place, while Corey Heim secured the victory. Thus, Zilisch in the No. 7 Chevy Silverado could battle with Heim at the Roval for a potential win.
