NASCAR driver Ross Chastain caused quite a stir last year when he used real-life wall-riding—a trick he apparentlyin 2005—to move up five spots and set a lap record in the final turn of the Xfinity 500. It was a bold, foolhardy, and absolutely spectacular maneuver, and today NASCAR "Chastain's dash around Turns 3 and 4 at Martinsville Speedway last October made for an enthralling finish as the No.
Because of that, NASCAR said it doesn't need to make any new rules to put the brakes on future occurrences, it'll just start enforcing the ones that already exist—specifically, rule 10.5.2.6.A: And because real-life wall-riding is absolutely not safe, anyone who tries it in the future will be given a time penalty, which will undo any gains they might make.
'Something happened to make the sport relevant for the first time in it's unremarkable history and nascar is MAD.'
The only reason millions of people watched a few minutes of NASCAR 😆 Ban it, Ban it!
One of the best sports in the world!
This is a HardDriveMag headline
Well, at least you can still wallride(run) in our game 🤷
while cowards, understandable

This is hilarious
I stop watching NASCAR years after Tony Stewart left the racing behind and I also haven't played their games not since the good old days on PS3
Cowards.
While it was cool, it was quite unsafe
yet committing murder by hitting someone into the wall is fine
God forbid anyone do anything exciting at a nascar race. “Gotta protect meh slowly goin in da circle for treee hours so dry buy da beer more”
NASCAR
Well damn, just when it was getting good, and here I was about to get some turtle shells for the next race.
But it’s doable in real life. It’s not a “video game stunt”. What’s the criteria?
The one thing that could have made NASCAR fun and they already banned it. This is the same series that has a competition caution to keep the racing close
That’s just lame
well, now I'm no longer mildly interested in nascar
they patched real life
The one NASCAR driver that did it said he'd never do it again because (quote), 'It was an unpleasant experience'. Source: TFA.
Skill issue
No fun ALLOWED
The only reason I watch extreme sports is the threat of death
:(

lame
Disagree
why would they its a stunt that rarely works, and punishes the driver with damage to the car, but if it works it works
people drive cars in video games, should racing just be banned altogether or smthn?
I may have to install NASCAR 2003, fire it up, and try this maneuver!
Sucks for everyone else but didn't Ross say it hurt like hell anyway? like his teeth were rattling in his head or something like that?
A car that can parkour is a monumental achievement, NASCAR ! Don't forbid it
Boooooooooooo 👎
It’s almost like NASCAR has someone reading fan feedback and then actively suggesting they do the opposite.
They mad cuz they lost a good bet
That stunt is now : One of a kind ...
Well. Atleast we got it once
And just like that Nascar is boring again 😂
That trick was meant to be used only once in a lifetime anyway so the news comes as no surprise. They actually took longer than expected to ban it.
But what about edge guarding? Looking at you, Marth Smash Bros players...
Sucks but makes sense, forever lengendary move
NASCAR has been devoid of fun ever since the Kevin Harvick incident anyway...
Everyone knew this was what was going to happen the day it happened.
lame
Kid who used to bitch about this when I raced them in these types of games was lame. Thus, NASCAR is also lame.
It was cool, but this is the right move.
goose_sports1 Nascar has become ever more boring than it ever could
Not surprised.
