Tyler Reddick

Frontstretch Quotes

An Interview with:

Q. Tyler Reddick with family in tow is going to run up here to grab the checkered flag in front of Darlington Raceway after what was an absolutely incredible performance. Tyler, the stat sheet is going to say you started first and finished first today, but there was a whole lot more than that in the middle of this race. When you're on pit road changing the battery about 50 laps in, did you think it was going to be possible?

TYLER REDDICK: I know never to give up. I think it's very fitting that when we finally get our first win here at Darlington that the lady in black would test us like that. We've been so close so many times. I mean, lap one we had the charging problem where the battery wasn't charging at all. All day long just not running fans. Sweat my tail off inside the race car, and we knew it was going to be physical.

Yeah, I don't know. Really wore out, but I guess I don't need as much of that cooling stuff as I normally have.

Q. I'd be careful saying that too loud. Billy Scott might not let you have it next week. You've been runner-up three times at Darlington. I know how much you wanted this one. You mentioned how much it means to you. Darlington, this is the place that's too tough to tame, and you've finally done it.

TYLER REDDICK: Yeah, I mean, ever since I made my first lap here in an O'Reilly Auto Parts car, there's just something about this racetrack that's so special, so challenging. It's been really fun for my evolution as a driver over the years, my time in O'Reilly Auto Parts car, my time at RCR and what we've perfected, my time here at 23XI.

Just really proud of everybody, and it's cool to get boss man his fourth win on the year.
