00:00Grant, your second win at your home track. Talk me through this last lap coming to start
00:05finish line. You had to fend him off. How did you make that happen? That's Tim Fedewell
00:10right there. We know that stuff was gonna get dicey. The biggest thing we didn't make
00:14all the perfect decisions today, but, uh, we had a we had a champion power for Miss
00:23Chevy. It was fast enough to get it done today. So even though we chose outside once and twice,
00:30maybe we shouldn't have or whatever. Um, that was Harry coming right there. New Taylor was
00:34coming with a run. Tim told me to go up. Then he told me to come down, and, uh, it just
00:40just alligators right there. So hopefully all the fans enjoyed it. It's nothing like
00:44winning your hometown home track. I got my family here. First win with my daughter and
00:49my son here. So looking forward to that and just on top of that, we get to race for a
00:54championship in Phoenix. So the first round did not go well. We snake through there, and
00:59now we won here. So thank you to Jeff. Thank you. Cody Robo. Larry Berg. Granny. Everybody
01:04that makes this possible. Everybody is Chevrolet. We had a really fast Chevy here. Same truck.
01:08We had a Daytona. We didn't have anything there to run with him in Daytona here. We
01:12had it. We had a truck that could win all day. You mentioned Cody Robo. Jeff Stanka,
01:15which this CR 17 essentially a brand new race team this season. What's it mean to get this
01:21team to victory lane with everything you've worked so hard for this year with these guys?
01:24You know, Cody's been racing for a long time, so it's not a first year team, but we revamped
01:29everything. I came over there. We're fortunate enough to bring Jeff Sink. What's over there?
01:33Michael Sheldon was already there. A lot of really, really good people followed. It's
01:37over here. George Stone, Jim Pierce, a lot of guys at the shop, Doug Howe, Garrett Lambert.
01:42They're just so many people that make this team. It's a little bit of the little team
01:46that could, but we have great resources with our friends over there at MHR. Obviously,
01:50great resources from from from everybody at Team Chevy. So we've been knocking on the
01:54door. I know it's a speedway race, but we've been knocking on the door at all the tracks.
01:58So I feel like we stumbled that first round of the playoffs, but it really doesn't matter
02:03now. So able to able to win our way to Phoenix. Now we can just focus on that. So I like looking
02:08forward to having some fun the next couple races. But a championship's on the line now.
02:12All right, get to victory lane and enjoy your family. Grant Emfinger wins at Talladega.
