Yeroschak Wins First eNASCAR Championship Series Title at Kansas Speedway
Connor Yeroschak won his first eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Championship Series win at Kansas Speedway on Tuesday night. The victory secured him a spot in the Championship 4 Finale, where he will face off against Steven Wilson, Bobby Zalenski, and Wyatt Tinsley for $100,000 and the Dale Earnhardt Jr Cup on October 13th at the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
Yeroschak's win was a major upset, as he entered the race two points below the cut line. However, with a late restart looming and a two-tire pit call, Yeroschak executed it perfectly, holding off Zack Novak on the restart and a late charge from Sebastian Marin to claim the win.
The Championship 4 Finale will be held at the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Uptown Charlotte, where Wilson enters as the defending two-time champion. Zalenski is hoping for his lucky seventh appearance in the Championship 4 Finale to finally get him a trophy. Tinsley and Yeroschak will be competing on stage in front of a live crowd for the first time.
