00:00 I'm going to try right now.
00:01 We're running out of time here, Riley.
00:02 We wanted to catch up with you at this enormous moment.
00:06 Can you believe what just happened?
00:10 >> No.
00:11 Oh, my goodness.
00:13 I love this town.
00:14 I love this team.
00:15 Daverne and Steve-O believes in me.
00:16 I have to give a big shout out to Richard Boswell.
00:20 I wouldn't be the person I am or the race car driver without him.
00:24 I can't thank monster energy enough.
00:26 Mitch Covington.
00:27 Dave Gahlon.
00:28 Everybody said I couldn't do it.
00:31 Those two people stuck behind me my whole career.
00:33 Oh, my goodness.
00:35 You don't know what this means.
00:36 What this takes off my chest.
00:37 I can't believe it.
00:39 I love you, Las Vegas.
00:40 Let's go.
00:41 >> Hey, Riley, coming down to the final laps there.
00:44 What were you hearing?
00:45 What were you thinking as the laps were winding down?
00:48 >> I've been working on myself and everything I can control.
00:51 I knew all I could do is all I could do.
00:54 If there was a caution, there was a caution.
00:55 We were going to race them straight up.
00:56 Oh, my goodness.
00:59 This year was such a failure because we didn't make the playoffs.
01:01 It's so embarrassing to be in a car like this that doesn't make the playoffs and walk in
01:05 the garage each week with your head down.
01:07 But Dave and Steve and all these guys on the 98 team told me to keep my head up and we're
01:12 going to go win a race.
01:13 That's what we did.
01:14 I can't fathom it.
01:15 I can't thank monster energy enough.
01:16 I can't thank my grandfather, my mom and dad.
01:19 I'm so emotional.
01:21 Everybody here at Las Vegas, I love you guys.
01:22 This is my home.
01:23 I was born and raised here.
01:24 So let's go party and we're going to celebrate tonight.
01:29 >> He did it at home, Rick.
01:30 Big time.
01:30 from Rick big time.
01:31 time.
