He\u2019s earned a season-best five wins in the opening 13 races, including the Daytona 500 trophy and his 10 top 10 finishes is also a series best.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reddick acknowledged the points-advantage is welcome, but his team must continue to push forward and not get too comfortable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s way better than being down a hundred something points to first,\u201d said Reddick, who drives the No. 45 23XI Racing Toyota. \u201cIt\u2019s a great spot to be in. Naturally, our confidence is in a really good place. Outside of that, when things go a little bit wrong, I don\u2019t feel like our hair is on fire or we\u2019re freaking out. The times we\u2019ve had days go wrong we\u2019ve still managed to have strong wins and win a couple of them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJust think our mindset is in a good place to manage it well. Yes, we want to win races, but we\u2019ve done a really good job of, if it\u2019s not going to be a win on that night,\u00a0knock on wood, we\u2019ve had a top 15 in every race this year. We\u2019ve just done a really good job of having a high floor and that\u2019s allowed us to hold the gap.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tyler Reddick smiled and conceded he\u2019s in a good place championship-wise with a huge 122-point advantage over second&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":704853,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[49,48,634,82],"class_list":["post-704852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nascar","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nascar","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/704852","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=704852"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/704852\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/704853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=704852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=704852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=704852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
