00:00Well, this might be the team that fights all odds.
00:02You're advancing against all the odds with chase briscoe in the number 14.
00:06Not only did you have a bad pit stop at one point of the race, but you had smoke in the
00:09cockpit.
00:10You couldn't see your rearview mirror.
00:11How were you able to advance tonight at Bristol?
00:14This is a really good race car.
00:15You know, Stuart Haas has done such an incredible job these last four weeks just bringing really
00:18good race cars.
00:19And yeah, people probably think I'm crazy, but I really feel like we're a championship
00:23contender.
00:24You know, with how we're running right now, the speed in our race cars, if we can just
00:28execute, obviously tonight we had some hiccups, but yeah, our stuff's really, really good.
00:33I feel like I'm probably driving the best I've ever driven.
00:35Our team's just super confident and yeah, we just, we had really good race cars.
00:39That's what it all came down to tonight with all the adversity, all the craziness.
00:43You can't drive a slow race car fast and our cars have been really fast, so it makes my
00:46job a lot easier.
00:47So yeah, it was a little probably more stressful than it needed to be, but was able to obviously
00:52come out of here in advance.
00:53So that's what it's all about.
00:54You mentioned that confidence level, a really solid round of 16 for you and this team.
00:59How do you feel about the round of 12?
01:01Yeah, I feel really good.
01:02You know, I think we ended up plus 11 in this round and we literally gave the whole field
01:06a race.
01:07We had one point leading Atlanta.
01:08So yeah, if we can just have three solid races the next round, I feel like that'll be enough.
01:14And for us, the round of eights, like the best tracks for us as a team and even myself
01:19as a driver.
01:20So a lot of focus on the next round.
01:22If we can do that, then I really think we can get to Phoenix.
01:24How does this sound?
01:25Welcome to the round of 12.
01:26Yeah, sounds good.
