NASCAR Pro Pulls Off Video Game Move

I saw this clip on the weekend and thought it would be a fun thing to share. This past weekend, NASCAR driver Ross Chastain decided to “ride the wall” (please visit the link for a video) on the final corner of the last lap to slingshot himself into 5th and secure one of four positions in the NASCAR cup final. In a post-race interview, Chastain thanked Gamecube as he explained his inspiration for the move came from NASCAR 05 on the GameCube. Unfortunately, unlike in-game, real life has no “damage off” setting so his car took a bit of a beating in the daring last-lap move.
