Briscoe finally feeling like he belongs among NASCAR elite
"I've never brought a single dime to any race team, so really, all I can bring is myself. If you're not performing, and all you can bring is your helmet, it makes it really easy for them to go in another direction. It's why you have to perform and show your worth. Yeah, we've been fortunate enough to do that this year, but I've always felt my back is against the wall, and that's what's always driven me."
"Those two wins have established Briscoe as the driver of the No. 19 Bass Pro Shops Toyota and have shown that he and crew chief James Small, who are only in their first season together, are building a great partnership. Briscoe not only led all Cup Series playoff drivers with the most points scored in the first round of the postseason (133), but led the entire series in points earned in those three races."
Chase Briscoe feels uncomfortable and believes he never brought financial backing to any race team, so he can only bring himself and must perform to keep his seat. He has won two races for Joe Gibbs Racing and formed a promising first-season partnership with crew chief James Small. Briscoe led all Cup Series playoff drivers in points in the first round (133) and led the entire series in points across those three races, with the second-most stage points (30) and 451 of 1,107 laps led. Early career instability and couch-sleeping helped shape his sense of being replaceable, which drives his performance.
