Episode 82 is on the scene with 17-year-old Phenom, Connor Zilisch. Zilisch explains what he learned from mishaps at COTA in the Truck Series, why his CARS Tour win was one of the biggest wins of his career, hooking up with Team Trackhouse, Pinnacle Racing, what watch he prefers and if he wears his Rolex after winning the 24 hours of Daytona. He also describes balancing all this extra media attention, being homeschooled and so much more.

We break down the CARS Tour race from New River All American Raceway. We debate the Brenden Queen, Mini Tyrell incident and whether it was just good hard racing.

We also preview the tour's return to Orange County Speedway this weekend.
