NASCAR, the governing body for America’s blockbuster stock car racing series, has announced a tweaked rulebook for the coming season – and amidst the changes there’s clarification that Ross Chastain’s GameCube-inspired wall-ride from last year’s race at Martinsville will no longer be allowed.
Chastain made the bold move on the last corner the Xfinity 500 that takes place at Martinsville – one of the smaller ovals on the NASCAR circuit, demanding a tight line from competitors – slamming his car into the wall to drive around the outside of five cars to leap from 10th to 5th position.
“I played a lot of NASCAR 2005 on the GameCube which I had growing up,” Chastain said after the race. “You could get away with it, and I never knew if it would actually work [in real life].”
