23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick has advanced to his first Playoff Round of 8 and the driver of the No. 45 Toyota feels optimistic about his chances in this round to win a position into the Championship 4. Not only does he feel like the team could win a race and earn the automatic transfer, he’s confident the team can “point” its way in as well, if necessary.

Reddick is ranked seventh among the eight remaining championship hopefuls – but only eight points behind fourth place Kyle Larson.

“I think when you look at our speed and the things that we’re really really at, our ceiling is there, it’s just a matter of putting it together on the race track and one weekend at a time,’’ Reddick

“I feel good about the tracks we have up ahead and then Phoenix at the end of that race we were battling Larson and Byron for the win there too,’’ he added. “So I feel like we’re really strong at these last remaining tracks.”
