The 2024 NASCAR Cup season so far has been strong for 23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick. He has already secured his playoff spot by winning the Talladega race in a thrilling fashion and has been in contention for wins since. He came close to winning his second race of the season last weekend at Darlington, but ended P32 after a late race incident.
Tyler Reddick was fighting for the lead with Chris Buescher of RFK Racing with just 10 laps left on the race. Out of desperation he pulled off a aggressive move on the No:17 driver and it resulted in both making contact and cutting each other tiers. It ruined the race for both, but despite the disappointment, the pole wins and impressive run till the incident gives his confidence.
He pointed out that his 23XI Racing pit-crew was in fine form and added that if the Michael Jordan owned team continues field such strong cars for him, he could continue to be in contention for wins. The No:45 Toyota Camry driver is confident that e could very soon return to leading and winning races with the strong team he has.
Obviously, we need to continue working on things, but like I said, my pit crew performed at the highest level on Sunday. If they continue to do that and we continue to bring fast race cars, we’re going to continue finding ourselves contending for these race wins... Very soon that will start leading us to the wins we that I think we are strong enough to achieve.Tyler Reddick said via RACER.

The 600 has been a good race for me. I think back to even my first race in the 600 in 2020. We’ve been able to grind out long races and get top 10 finishes and run well. Especially in the Next Gen era, man, in that 600-mile race, we’ve been really strong. We’re very excited to get back there knowing how solid we were a year ago in the 600.Tyler Reddick said.
