Rookie Star Cole Custer Says He’s Going to Give a Tough Fight to Everyone in the Playoffs

With the NASCAR regular season finally over, the 16 drivers competing in the playoffs are finally decided. These 16 drivers are determined to give it their all and challenge for the 2020 Cup Series crown. Among them is Stewart-Haas Racing driver, Cole Custer.

Recently, he spoke to SiriusXM NASCAR Radio ahead of the first playoff race this weekend. As it turns out, this is the first time that Custer has made it to the playoff stage. Of course, Custer is eager to get as many tips and tricks as possible from other experienced drivers.

Naturally, the first person he will approach is, teammate and championship leader, Kevin Harvick. He said, “I’ll definitely be trying to talk to him. Think about what he’s most looking forward to when he goes in the playoffs. He’s been real helpful. There are a lot of things happening in the playoffs and things can change in the blink of an eye.”

What else did Cole Custer say in the buildup to Darlington?

He confessed that as a rookie, things are tough, especially with no practice or qualifying. However he did say that it was a dream come true to finally make it into the playoffs. Cole Custer insisted, “I don’t want to just be part of the playoffs, I wasnt to be competitive. So, we’re gonna go out there with all we’ve got.”

Speaking about whether his team is capable of fighting for a championship, he admitted that they can be. According to him, it was just a matter of putting all the puzzle pieces together. Even though he is a rookie, the team is very fast, so there is no reason why they cannot be a title contender.

Whatever happens, this NASCAR playoff will be hugely interesting and competitive. Can Cole Custer bag a win in the playoffs and how long will he last in these 10 races.
