The #1 NASCAR content creator on YouTube, Eric Estepp hosts Out of the Groove, a daily talk show covering news and trending topics in the NASCAR fan community.

NASCAR just made a midseason rule change, and fans are fuming. At the same time, Connor Zilisch turned 19 and might already be the most electrifying rookie NASCAR’s seen in decades. So why is NASCAR shifting the rules now? And how does Zilisch fit into the sport’s future?

  • Why did NASCAR suddenly cap entry lists at 40 cars?
  • What does this have to do with the 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports lawsuit?
  • Is this a sneaky move to dodge an injunction, or protect the show?
  • Meanwhile, did Denny Hamlin just call Zilisch the most impressive rookie he’s ever seen?

Zilisch may be on a historic trajectory, but jumping to Cup next year won’t be easy, especially in a 29th-place car. Eric breaks down why fans should believe the hype but also temper expectations. And as for NASCAR’s new rule? Let’s just say it reeks of damage control. Watch the full video for the breakdown of NASCAR’s courtroom chess move and why Zilisch is the real deal. Is this entry limit rule justifiable, or is it a desperate power play?
