Tyler Reddick is officially on a HEATER.

Three races. Three wins. The first 3-for-3 start in NASCAR history - and now the real question is… can he just win them all?

In this episode of Stacking Pennies, Corey LaJoie and Ryan Flores break down Tyler Reddick’s dominant performance at COTA (Circuit of The Americas), what makes road course racing different in NASCAR, and why right-foot braking might be the secret weapon separating the best from the rest.

We dive deep into:

• Reddick’s historic start to the NASCAR season
• COTA race breakdown (Cup + O'Reilly's)
• The SVG vs Reddick horsepower debate
• Why mechanical grip matters more than peak horsepower
• Dario Franchitti’s return at 52 years old
• Ford’s driver development concerns
• Eli Tomac’s 8th Daytona Supercross win — and the trophy that knocked his tooth out
• Snow racing in Big Sky, Montana
• Phoenix Raceway preview (tire wear + strategy)
• F1 season kickoff and Cadillac’s debut

From NASCAR Cup Series strategy to Supercross chaos to Formula 1 storylines, this week had everything.

Gasoline. Rubber. Victory. Let’s stack ‘em.
