\u201cObviously incredibly excited about what\u2019s going on this year,\u2019\u2019 TRD President Tyler Gibbs said earlier this week, noting that the work for this started end of 2024 into 2025. \u201cwe\u2019re really beginning to see the fruits of that this year.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s an expectation for us compete for race wins and championships and that\u2019s kind of where we\u2019ve been living,\u2019\u2019 Gibbs continued. \u201cI think you\u2019ve seen over the last number of years we\u2019ve had plenty of guys in the final four. The last one-day event didn\u2019t work for us the way we\u2019d like but we\u2019ve been right there competing until the very end.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re good, have great support and can\u2019t tell you the number of texts and emails I received after winning the championship from the leadership at Toyota, so we\u2019re in a good spot and have just great support from TGR (Toyota Gazoo Racing North America).\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With 23XI Racing Tyler Reddick\u2019s victory last week at Phoenix Raceway, Toyota officially wrapped up its fourth NASCAR…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":945077,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[49,48,634,82],"class_list":["post-945076","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\/945076","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=945076"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/945076\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/945077"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=945076"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=945076"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=945076"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
