Connor Zilisch is one of the brightest prospects in NASCAR right now and Trackhouse Racing has been working to get the 18-year-old experience in a Cup car while he competes for the NASCAR Xfinity Series championship.
With sponsorship from Red Bull, he made his Cup debut at COTA, driving the No. 87 Chevrolet. Zilisch showed impressive pace, qualifying 14th before being collected in a mid-race crash with teammate Daniel Suarez, finishing 37th. He managed to complete 49 of 95 laps before the incident.
