2025 Fantasy Outlook
The 18-year-old talent is making the move to full-time Xfinity Series racing in 2025. Zilisch made some part-time forays into both the trucks and Xfinity last season and had quite a bit of success. In his four Xfinity Series starts he grabbed one win (Watkins Glen) and three Top-5 finishes. Zilisch has won at every level that he's raced and that includes sports cars. He racked up impressive wins at both Daytona (Rolex 24) and Sebring in IMSA. Zilisch is a gifted road racer but he also is getting better by the day on NASCAR ovals. He makes a tantalizing prospect in the JRM No. 88 Chevrolet in the upcoming season just on potential alone. The young driver is a head turner and should have Rookie of the Year honors in the bag.

Claims Fourth Straight Win
Zilisch won the Nu Way 200 Sauced by Blues Hog NASCAR Xfinity Series race at World Wide Technology Raceway on Saturday night.
ANALYSIS
The JR Motorsports star started from the pole and led a race-high 121 laps. Zilisch would grab a stage 1 win and have the field chasing him all evening at Gateway. He would yield the lead briefly late during the last caution of the race but would soon resume the point and drive away to a 1.5-second victory over William Sawalich. It was the fourth-straight win for Zilisch and ninth of the season. He was crowned the Xfinity regular season champion as a result.
