00:00 >> Parker, let me be the first to welcome Bubba Wallace to the 2023 playoff.
00:03 What were the emotions like for you before the race and during the race today?
00:11 >> That was the most stressed but also the most locked in that I've ever been.
00:16 Knowing that this place is mostly out of your control, I just try to focus on doing the
00:21 things that I could do.
00:23 Missing that wreck was massive.
00:24 I appreciate Freddie.
00:25 He's just -- he's one of the best up on the roof.
00:28 He gets us through a lot.
00:30 That's what helps our resume here at the speedway stuff.
00:34 Proud to be locked in the playoffs.
00:35 This is special for our team.
00:39 2311 third year in, getting both cars in the playoffs.
00:42 We've gone through a lot of trials and tribulations.
00:46 But just so proud of the effort that we put in.
00:48 No matter how much we set ourselves back, we know that we have a kick-ass group and
00:53 we can bounce back from anything.
00:55 So appreciate all of our partners.
00:56 >> Columbia, Luke Combs coming on for this game.
00:59 I know I had a lot of Luke Combs fans out here in daytona.
01:03 My wife, she puts up with me during the stressful times.
01:06 I just totally wasn't myself.
01:08 So sorry, babe.
01:10 I was focused and just trying to get us in and pay for this house that you want.
01:14 >> Well, you can do that now for the first time ever.
01:18 Bubba Wallace, 2311 and the 23 team will be a player in the playoffs, Rick.
