Tyler Reddick produced one of the boldest final-lap moves of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season to win the AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway in overtime, matching Dale Earnhardt's five-win mark from 1987 at this point in a season.
Starting from pole and leading practice earlier in the weekend, Reddick spent much of the 267-lap race chasing behind the dominant Joe Gibbs Racing contingent. But a late caution flipped the script, and after a pit exchange and a restart that left the front row three wide into Turn 1, the 23XI Racing driver engineered an inside-line pass on Kyle Larson that decided the race.
"Yeah, you know, just really blessed with the late caution. How about that? Was that nuts or what?" Reddick told Fox Sports from victory lane. "I couldn't believe it. I mean, first off, I feel like I have to say obviously just for how I feel, and I never like being on the other side of it. Really hate that for Christopher Bell. You know, it's good hard racing."
Bell, who had restarted on the outside line, was turned into the wall when Reddick's Toyota slid up off Turn 2 under three-wide pressure. The JGR driver was able to nurse a broken toe link to pit road without drawing a caution, but his day was wrecked.
"Eleven came up and I just I mean I took off tight," Reddick admitted. "So, not thrilled I got Christopher there. I hate that for him because he was having a good solid day. So, man, it's just these late race restarts. It gets really, really crazy there."
Larson finished second for Hendrick Motorsports after briefly seizing the lead on the overtime restart, with Chase Briscoe third and Denny Hamlin — Reddick's team co-owner — fourth after a heartbreaking late stumble.
"Obviously had a run on the five and I was just shocked I was able to get to his inside there," Reddick said of the winning move. "Just an incredible Supply House Toyota Camry all day long. So yeah, I was really thankful we got that late caution."
Team co-owner Michael Jordan, a regular visitor to 23XI's pit box this year, watched the overtime unfold from the stand.
"I'm racing against Denny. So, in essence, I really wanted to beat him because I know we're going to talk a lot of trash a little bit later," Jordan joked after the checkered flag. "But it was a good race. When we started to run out of fuel, I didn't know what was happening. But 2311, all the guys drove well today. I mean, we finished, I think, all four cars in the top 15. So that says a lot about the program, and this kid is on fire, you know. I don't even know what to say. I don't know if I can cool him down."
Reddick added: "Got to deliver for boss man. If he's going to come hang out with us, we got to get him dubs. That's what it's all about. All about the wins."
The win is the fifth for 23XI at Kansas Speedway across the last nine races, cementing the Jordan-Hamlin co-owned outfit's status as a spring-season juggernaut heading toward the summer months.
