NASCAR says the move is within the rules, but it might just end up being a discussion item in the offseason.
The 29-year-old Chastain, as much fun as he's having with his new-found fame, is careful not to let the wall haul distract from what's been a life-changing season for himself and Trackhouse racing.
"Bigger than the last lap, just remember the fact we are putting ourselves in position to just have a shot at a championship," Chastain said."That's all we ask for.”Surprisingly, Chastain's crew chief, Phil Surgen, didn't know that move was even in the Trackhouse Racing bag of tricks. He saw the move like everyone else—on a TV monitor. And for Surgen, that meant on a slight time delay.
"And momentarily after that, I hear our spotter and when we've we've crashed or we spun this year, I can tell by his language, the tone of his voice, I can tell something's wrong. And he starts telling Ross, 'Hold on, Hod on to it.'Crew chief Phil Surgen was as surprised as anyone when Ross Chastain pulled a rabbit out of his hat at Martinsville."In the next few seconds, I'm kind of witnessing what's happening.
