In 2025, Connor Zilisch beat Jesse Love for his second win of the year. Now, the sport will head to Pocono with a substantial amount of money on the line.<\/p>\n<p>The purse for the O&#8217;Reilly Series race at Pocono will be $1,653,590 on Saturday afternoon. NASCAR doesn&#8217;t release the earnings for the winning driver anymore, meaning it&#8217;s impossible to tell how much of the $1,653,590 will go toward the team in victory lane. Last year, the purse for Pocono sat at $1,651,939, which is roughly a $2,000 increase.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>It will be fascinating to see which NASCAR driver will earn the most money at Pocono this weekend. Zilisch is looking to go back-to-back in the race at Pocono, but Love and Ryan Sieg had good cars in 2025. Pocono always puts on a show, and this weekend should be no different.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">More: <a href=\"https:\/\/motorsportswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/motor\/nascar\/2026\/06\/12\/nascar-odds-oreilly-series-race-pocono-june-2026\/90510554007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:NASCAR odds for O&#039;Reilly Series race at Pocono in June 2026;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;NASCAR odds for O&#039;&quot;}\" class=\"link \">NASCAR odds for O&#8217;Reilly Series race at Pocono in June 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Motorsports Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/motorsportswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/motor\/nascar\/2026\/06\/12\/nascar-purse-oreilly-series-race-pocono-june-2026\/90510827007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:NASCAR purse for O&#039;Reilly Series race at Pocono in June 2026;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;NASCAR purse for O&#039;&quot;}\" class=\"link \">NASCAR purse for O&#8217;Reilly Series race at Pocono in June 2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NASCAR is gearing up for the 18th race weekend of the 2026 season at Pocono Raceway, and the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":732446,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[49,48,9398,8993,634,213293,50562,82],"class_list":["post-732445","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nascar","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-connor-zilisch","tag-jesse-love","tag-nascar","tag-o39reilly","tag-pocono-raceway","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/732445","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=732445"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/732445\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/732446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=732445"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=732445"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=732445"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
