NASCAR's Ross Chastain Takes Ban On Wall-Ride Move 'Like A Badge Of Honor'

says he's honored that his iconic wall-riding stunt is now banned in the rule book ... tellingRemember, the 30-year-old Trackhouse Racing driver went viral for his video game-inspired move at Martinsville Speedway last year ... when he shot from 10th place to 5th on the final lap to secure his spot in the Championship 4 by hitting the wall to reach insane speed to cross the finish line

While the move was considered legal at the time, NASCAR recently emphasized its rules to make sure the stunt isn't replicated in the future.ahead of the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum."I'm proud that I've got a rule named after me, right?" Chastain explained his inspiration for the move after the race ... saying he"played a lot of NASCAR 2005 on the GameCube" when he was 8 years old.

The wall-ride is now explicitly stated as a big no-no in the rule book, and Chastain says it's a tip of the cap to his team ... and their ability to push his car to the limits.

The only thing that’s been worth watching in nascar

Most awesome race move ever.

I felt the same way when our local rec league would come up with new rules in my name.😂😂

I watched his stunt like 20 times, It was AWESOME!

He discovered something that no other driver thought of. So unique was it, that it has been banned by the sanctioning body of NASCAR. That truly is an honor.

Definitely looks like a dangerous maneuver

NASCAR is silly.

Is it professional racing when you let go of the steering wheel?
