Call Tyler Reddick Mr. Hamburglar. At least for this weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway where he’s repping the McDonald’s icon. While NASCAR fans voted for Bubba Wallace to drive the Grimace car earlier this year for this race, Reddick is following it up with the runner-up.
The Hamburglar is going to be right with Tyler Reddick. This black and white striped scheme is going to look insanely fast as Reddick drives inches from the Homestead wall.
Folks, there is a real chance we see this car win the race this weekend. Reddick really likes Homestead-Miami and has a great history there. He might just steal the race this weekend if the other drivers aren’t careful.
Tyler Reddick as the Hamburglar. 23XI has had some amazing paint schemes this year. However, McDonald’s putting together the Grimace and Hamburglar schemes is just too cool. I can’t wait to see Reddick and Wallace in their firesuits. It’s going to look like Reddick just busted out of jail.
Remember Reddick isn’t afraid to be funny. He dressed up as Dolly Parton in the past for a race. Maybe we will see the full Tyler Reddick as Hamburglar look this Sunday. It isn’t even Halloween, yet!
Tyler Reddick will try to advance to Phoenix
Of course, the goal this week isn’t to just look good. Tyler Reddick, Hamburglar or not, is looking to win at Homestead-Miami. If he is able to do that, he’s into the Championship 4 for the first time ever in his career.
He’s won the Xfinity Series championship before. He now wants to claim the Cup Series title for himself. He will have to battle it out with Kyle Larson and others. Even though Larson has a win and is locked into Phoenix, he wants to win at Miami more than most tracks.
These two former dirt racers have a knack for riding the wall at any track. However, Miami lends itself to that kind of racing more than others. It is why both of them have been so good over the years here.
So, what do you expect from Tyler Reddick the Hamburglar? Is he going to put this unique scheme into victory lane and put himself into the Championship 4?
