The 2023 General Tire 100 at The Glen was the 13th stock car race of the 2023 ARCA Menards Series season, and the 3rd iteration of the event. The race was held on Friday, August 18, 2023, in Watkins Glen, New York at Watkins Glen International, a 2.454 mile (3.949 km) permanent road course. The race was scheduled to be contested over 41 laps, but was extended to 42 laps due to a NASCAR overtime finish. In a wild one-lap overtime restart, Jesse Love, driving for Venturini Motorsports, would make a bump-and-run move on Connor Zilisch in the final turn, and held him off to earn his 10th career ARCA Menards Series win, his eighth of the season, and his fourth in a row. Zilisch had dominated the entire race, leading a race-high 34 laps.[4] To fill out the podium, Zilisch, driving for Pinnacle Racing Group, and Brent Crews, driving for Venturini Motorsports, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
