2025 Fantasy Outlook

The move to 23XI Racing and the No. 45 Toyota team last season was a success. Reddick nabbed two victories and 16 Top-10 finishes, and he rounded out last season strong with a good drive into the playoffs (finishing sixth in the final driver standings). What will this young driver do for an encore in 2024? We believe Reddick is one of the budding talents in the sport with the most unrealized potential to this point. 23XI Racing is growing and clearly getting stronger as we go and that should help boost Reddick in his pursuit of a championship and climbing these very driver rankings. Billy Scott will remain as crew chief of this driver and team and continue to grow his chemistry with Reddick. The young driver is already one of the top road course performers in the Cup Series and he's getting better very quickly on the intermediate ovals, a major key to success in NASCAR's top division.

Runner-up Finish at Darlington

NASCAR Cup

September 1, 2025

Reddick finished second in the Cook Out Southern 500 NASCAR Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway on Sunday night.

ANALYSIS
Reddick would start fourth on the grid and play second fiddle to Chase Briscoe all evening at the Track Too Tough to Tame. The 23XI Racing star would lead only 3 laps but he would finish runner-up in the first two stages. Reddick would mount a charge in the closing laps and chase down Briscoe for the win, but he would fall four-tenths short at the checkered flag. The runner-up finish was his sixth Top 5 of the season.

Reddick drew a lot of attention after his career-best three-win and 10 Top-5 finish campaign in 2022. The young driver was already being courted by 23XI Racing for a planned 2024 move into their Toyota, but the retirement of Kurt Busch put his move on the fast track. Richard Childress Racing agreed to release Reddick early from his contract and he will now pilot the No. 45 Toyota for 23XI Racing in 2023, one season earlier than planned. It's clear the 26-year-old Californian is a rising star in the sport. Reddick was sharp on intermediate ovals, short tracks and road courses. Crew chief Billy Scott will be paired with him in the No. 45 team, and Reddick will look to build on the impressive stats he posted with RCR last season. He will partner with teammate, Bubba Wallace, and look to make the NASCAR championship playoffs for the second year in a row.

Reddick found more consistency in season two with Richard Childress Racing. The young driver racked up 16 Top-10 finishes in 2021 and lowered his average finish 2.5 spots to a respectable 15.0. The performance and consistency were very noteworthy. However, one thing was still lacking and that was victories. With just 43 laps led for the season, the No. 8 Chevrolet wasn't out front a whole lot. That lack of speed was the one thing that limited Reddick's success last season. It's not completely certain that RCR can provide the young driver with that speed to win. That being said, Randall Burdett returns as crew chief and the new Next-Gen car could be the field-leveling x-factor that provides Reddick a boost. The future is bright for the RCR youngster and he has the potential to grow and up his performance if certain things can come together.

While Reddick wasn't able to out-duel Cole Custer in last season's Rookie of the Year battle, the two waged quite a war. The Richard Childress Racing youngster stayed right with Custer through most of the campaign. He actually tallied two more Top 10s than Custer with 9 total for the season. However, Reddick would fall short in the ROTY chase. The driver of the No. 8 Chevrolet returns for season 2 at the Cup Series level and he'll continue to move forward with Randall Burdett at crew chief. Reddick showed some tremendous skill at both superspeedway and short track racing last year, so those would seem to be his strengths at this point. The soon-to-be 25-year-old talent will take some more steps forward in 2021. As Reddick continues to impress, larger teams will begin to notice and Childress will have to fight to keep this youngster in the RCR stable.

The two-time Xfinity Series champion will move into NASCAR's top division this season. Reddick takes over the No. 8 Chevrolet team that Daniel Hemric piloted last season. Hemric labored to just two Top-10 finishes in this car last season in a struggling rookie campaign. We expect Reddick to move performance up a few notches. The young driver raced like his hair was on fire last season. He grabbed six victories and an amazing 24 Top-5 finishes en route to claiming the Xfinity Series championship for the second-straight season. Reddick will bring his crew chief from that division, Randall Burnett, and the two will look to carry on their coupled success at NASCAR's top level. It's going to be a tough labor to elevate this race team, but Reddick has the pure talent to make some serious headway. He made a couple spot starts last season in the Cup Series and impressed with a ninth-place finish at Kansas Speedway.

The 2018 Xfinity Series champion could see some part-time action this season. Car owner, Richard Childress, hinted as much during December at RCR's 50th-anniversary celebration. Reddick was clutch with his two victories and 20 Top-10 finishes in winning the Xfinity Series crown. Childress would have to field a third, part-time team for any starts Reddick would make, so they're not guaranteed a spot in the starting field. The young driver would have to qualify on lap time every attempt. This driver and team will have no fantasy racing value, but will only tease the abilities of this young driver as he continues to climb the NASCAR ladder of development.

Reddick will have some big shoes to fill in the No. 9 JRM Chevrolet. This is the ride that defending champion William Byron used to storm his way to the 2017 Xfinity Series title. Reddick got a good taste of racing in this division of NASCAR last year with Chip Ganassi. He nabbed one victory and six Top-10 finishes in an 18-start slate. Toward the end of last season Reddick was winning poles, leading laps and challenging for wins. He now takes over the car that Byron used to claim four wins and 22 Top 10's last year. On paper it's a very good situation, but the 22-year-old driver will have to make it happen so there's a lot at stake. Expecting Reddick to take this team to back-to-back championships may be a bit overly optimistic, but there's no doubt they'll win some races and be very visible each week.

This team was a very pleasant surprise and top performer for last season. Larson led the way with 16 starts that yielded two victories, 11 Top-5 and 14 Top-10 finishes. He’ll be in for a similar, but slightly smaller workload again in 2017. Reddick comes over from Brad Keselowski’s truck series program and will get the majority of the remaining starts for this team. The talented youngster piled up three victories and 31 Top 10’s in that division of NASCAR over the last two years, so he’ll be a good fit in a timeshare of this team with Monster Energy Cup star Larson. Marks will likely be the road course starter for this team, which is also good news as he claimed a victory at Mid-Ohio last season for the No. 42 CGR team.

Reddick seemingly came out of nowhere last year to place his name among the top drivers in this racing series. Prior to 2015, the 19-year-old had only 17 starts of experience in the trucks, but that mattered little with this strong race team. The BKR team put great equipment under him and good experience behind him en route to a two-win, 19 Top-10 finish campaign with a runner-up finish in the driver standings. Reddick will move from the team’s No. 19 truck into the No. 29 truck, and he’ll be paired with crew chief Chad Kendrick. The young driver should have no problem following up on his fantastic season of last year, and making a big push to win the championship at Brad Keselowski Racing.
