LAKEVILLE, CONN. (20 August 2025) — NASCAR is officially returning to Northwest Connecticut. After a landmark debut in 2025, the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series will race once again at Lime Rock Park on July 10-11, 2026.
WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. – It was as hard-earned a victory as the 19-year old Connor Zilisch has claimed in his brief NASCAR career – answering his win from pole position a year ago in his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at the historic Watkins Glen International road course with a second consecutive victory Saturday afternoon in a crash-heavy Mission 200 at The Glen.
As Zilisch climbed out of the cockpit and onto the door ledge of his No. 88 JR Motorsports Chevrolet to celebrate his series-best sixth trophy of the season, he slipped and fell to the ground. Medical teams arrived immediately to tend to him and transported him on a backboard to the trackside medical center.
