Old news but it will never get old
Fr
real
True
I will ALWAYS laugh at this. I was pissed at the time but it’s so funny to look back on
I collect 1:64 diecast cars. There is a company that sells very realistic NASCAR replicas, usually of cars from the previous year. Well, they did Chastain's Martinsville car, complete with the damage to the right side painted on! OK, I like Ross, but I'm not a super fan of his, but as soon as I saw what they did with this car, I grabbed 2 of them. One to open up and display, and one to stay in the package. You can find these cars at Walmart and Target.
When you have nothing to lose. You have everything to gain
Damn now its one of my favorit quots
Well said.
Another hypocritical moment. Dillon had everything to gain.
The radio for this is legendary. They tell him coming to the last lap, “you need 2” saying he needs 2 spots to advance in the playoffs. In turns one and 2 he says “gotta get ‘em?” And they say “need to get ‘em.” Confirming his question, and then you can hear him just grab 4th gear down the backstretch when everyone else is down shifting under braking and he floors it.
I love the radio from the other cars
The in car of him grabbing 5th gear and pointing it straight at the wall is one of the most bad ass things I’ve ever seen… the radios of all the other cars around him are pretty funny too
@@gageneisius8034the best to me was hearing Denny say how awesome it was as they had an ongoing feud.
And the it’s “YOU MADE THE TRANSFER MAN!!! YOY MADE THE TRANSFER MAN!”
@@Bizz4r2m0ke admitted he got beat fair and square..
The developers fixed the glitch
They always got to be making the game boring
it aint no glitch
removed a feature*
It's not a bug...it's a feature
Always patching😂
imagine you're so good they officially banned your techniques 💀💀
Too bad he's not that good
I think they banned it for safety reasons. One car doing it isn't necessarily a problem, but three or four could be.
@@Racer7331also one bad entry and you have a cars front end catching the catch fence and then flying across the track from the momentum. Plus it’s just not in the spirit of the race to wall ride.
Hudson Motors: I feel that
You should look into Smokey Eunuch, that man did some of the most insane shit ever to win.
that was definitely NOT a GENTLE wall ride 💀
It was an effective one tho
Sacrifices must be made to win.
I mean it was probably the most gentle at that speed and not destroying the car completely
At 130 mph I am surprised he didn't blow right through the wall 😅
HE WON WHO CARES
“How did you make the final 4?”
“A video game”
Gives new meaning to
"If you ain't rubbing, you ain't racing."
Terrific!
I don’t know if I would say, “Gently” 😂
I mean as gently as you could at Martinsville, I'm still shocked he didn't catch the wall opening they use for the haulers to get into the track, could've easily had a Michael Waltrip/Mike Harmon Bristol moment if his car caught it, definitely see why Nascar banned it lmao
Dumbledore ask calmly
Embodiment of it ain't illegal the first time lol
Can’t be a war crime if it ain’t a crime at all😂
Technically it was illegal though.
@@Kartkid024
Yeah.. so its a loophole but it served it purpose once..
@@karuzozweihander3218 It's not really a loophole, the rule just didn't get enforced correctly. Really you could call it a missed call.
@@Kartkid024it wasn’t illegal at the time. Multiple ppl attempted it before but didn’t succeed at it.
Every GenX and Millenial was waiting for this science to be proven. God bless this man for taking the steps to prove it!
And gen z
@@Croco_519 GenZ wasn’t alive in the 90’s when this miracle of racing science was first discovered on ancient 32-bit consoles :P
@@wiggy8912 But gen z was alive in the early 2000s when the only somewhat affordable consoles were from the 90s
This move will age like fine wine
A classic.
I remember watching this, it was so epic I jumped up out of my seat. Because of that I will always be a Ross Chastain fan.
Its not a crime the first time.😂😂😂😂😂
saw this live, grandfather and i freaked out 😂😂
There's a short somewhere of this with audio from different drivers and crews. And I think some of their cams from the drivers seat. One of them did ask if Chastain really did a "video game move" or something along those lines. It's pretty cool cuz no one seems upset. Rather, they're _impressed_ that it actually works in reality.
Well let’s be honest we’ve all wondered if it would work on real life and Watermelon man was the only person crazy enough to try it 😂
“Gently hugged the wall” are u sure abt that🤔🤔🤔
“gently hugged the wall” ☠️
Well… as gently as you CAN hug a wall traveling at almost 200mph
@@diamondxmen buddy.. almost 200mph?
@@wankeltruck21165 okay yes in the race during that lap he went over 200 technically but I meant like a more on average thing.
@@diamondxmen The record average speed at Martinsville is 82 miles an hour, set in 1997 by Jeff Gordon. Chastain hit a peak speed of 130 mph in his wall ride.
@@treestar22 Oh, thanks for the clarification... I don't follow NASCAR like at all, I prefer sports like Soccer.
I play the PS2 2003 version, never thought of that trick before honestly, glad I now know it for when me and my pops race each other again lmao
I thought everyone knew about this?
@@chrismiley1006 clearly not
I never did either. I always would run the apron and by the inside wall without touching it
@@isaiahmarker407 I do quite well with racing games, so I usually have no need to touch the wall or other cars, however I usually raced as 88
@@primarisoverload7887 I've ran it like an actual race and had success but if I ever tried something video gamey it was that instead of wall riding
I can watch the move all day long what a piece of driving genius
Out of the box thinking but didn't take driving skill.
@@jeffrunyan2691im sure you know a lot about driving skills haha😂 your probably one of those that thinks just because you have watched real drives on TV you can do it to 😂 go back to your recliner and hush
I can watch it again and again, I don't get bored. THIS is a true NASCAR move, it will remain in history, like the "pass in the grass".
This technique works in wreckfest too, exclusively on oval tracks 👌
It also worked in Forza before it got fixed and banned. 😂
Classic Nascar move banning the only entertaining thing in their sport so it becomes boring again
To be fair if they didn’t band this move then easily every single race would turn into who has the better driver and vehicle to who can smash their car into the wall and not die XD
@@gamerman0252 True but still the sport has gone to soft and the only thing that makes it fun is little moments like this that bring a smile to my face
Its not safe
@@EndlessFlame1 It may not be safe but all the regulations in Nascar make the sport so bland nowadays that's why their watch percent keeps going down every year
@@dudeneon924 why do you want drivers not to be safe? And btw NASCAR has been beating f1 in ratings in the us
Still to this day the best damn thing that’s happened in NASCAR!!! To see a video game move done in real life and actually work is just awesome!!!
I still enjoy that moment!
He just ride the lightning ⚡
Chastaim pulled most pro gamer move ever known to man
What a legend I remember watching it on TV
That was a insanely smart move. Guess it comes down to How Bad Do You Want It...
Too bad Ross didn't get the title.
That game was probably the best one they ever released
That's the best highlight in recent years
I grew up playing NASCAR 2005 on GameCube. So nostalgic
HAIL MELON!!! Grew up 30 minutes from Ross’s hometown of Alva, now has been my favorite driver since he came into NASCAR!
Brad got disqualified from the race because of failure of post race inspection so Ross finished In 4th
Honestly remember seeing this happen. Absolutely blew my mind. And also the fact that he got it from a video game
What a legend.
That's move was legendary good job ross chastain
Isn't that car in a museum i forgot
I believe it’s at the Trackhouse Racing base in Concord, North Carolina
The wall is to
Trackhouse themself has it rn but i’m sure one day it’ll end up in the NASCAR Hall of Fame iconic cars display
That was the most gentle interaction between a motor vehicle and a cement wall I've ever seen 😅
I think every gamer agrees with me when I say... this was the coolest gaming - IRL racing crossover EVER.
on the same note: all the boiz when we all look at this:
HELL YEAAAH!!
I have played a hell of a lot of racing games and have used wall rides to get a boost. Well, keep myself from having to slow down. I never could have imagined that you could just do that until I saw him do that a good while ago. I figured the car would grind to a halt and that would be that. Or ping off something hard and wind up in a different county. Meet the lord. Meet the devil. Meet Vishnu. Gain five spots at the end of a race? Naw.
I still remember seeing this while watching it on television. My family was in shock. Remember it like it was yesterday
Still my favorite sports story this decade
That was a legend tom cruise days of thunder move.
1 word: "NICE"!
This move has never let me down in NFS Underground 2
One of the coolest moves I've ever seen. The "watermelon man" is a force to be reckoned with.
“Gently hugged the wall” fucking lolololol
I remember turning on the tv and all I saw was this happening live. That was all I needed to see.
That is absolutely sublime.
when the games are so realistic their tactics work irl
When reward Outweighs Risk TOP move bud the crowd LOVED IT😁 Yi Haaaaar
Yes planet of the apes always likes carnage.
Gently!?!? BOY THAT SON OF A GUN LEFT A BLACK MARK ON THAT WALL
he didn't crash tho
@@MSAutoSnaphe may as well have crashed because the result was the same and a crash would’ve been safer then this
@@elliot20 a crash would have wrecked the whole car and left him with a DNF but okay go off bud
@@stitchrcrp just not true bot alright
For order of reference, 130mph is ~210kmph
That wall run was epic 😂😂😂
The hail melon will be the most legendary move ever
Almost 2 years later, and it's all Nascar is known for anymore
Track record is never gonna be beat again lol
Absolute madlad.
Oh my god that’s the move in that game holy hsti I can’t believe my eyes that was art in it’s purest form
Definitely just gently road the wall.😂😂
The hail melon! 😂
What a legend
Oh yeah, I've done the same thing and still do !!! I didn't know someone done this in reality !! Far out !!!❤
Man that was two years ago? Still so damn awesome glad I saw it live.
HAIL THE MELON
“Gently hugged the wall” 😂😂😂😂
That’s how I “gently hug” my wife. 😜
Gently?
Yeah, it is gentle
I would've said "My brakes gave up the ghost"
At Darlington Speedway, winners often used the guardrail to do the same thing, the marks the white painted rail left on the car were called Darlington Stripes
Dude 2005 Chase for the Cup on GameCube brings back so many memories. That head to head race in the vipers at the beginning with Ryan Newman… man I wish I still had my GameCube :/
He had flashbacks of Daytona USA too.
That's a hard move to beat. Nice job.
Ross is da man!
I do that everytime in all the nascar games i played
I’ve seen this many times, but this never gets old 😂
This was year(s) ago, but im glad people still remember it
That ain't gentle
It's his salute to gamers everywhere 🎮
Bro now also holds the fastest lap time on that track too😂 “technically”
Epic. If you see it... go for it.
Omg I played that game! I need to buy a GameCube and re live my child hood
RAHHHH LIVE LAUGH LOVE ROSS
"Gently" hugged the outside wall
Ross chastain actually brought his car out to the store I work at. Funniest part was watching the team and my boss figure out where to park it
"I've got an idea!! It so crazy it just might work"
Every race game lover after too fast to take turn correctly:
That's exactly how I run Bristol motor speedway in the games 😂
Grand Tourismo flashbacks
ross was the first to try the wall ride. larson did it at darlington in 2021
Bet it got hot in there😮
Cant Believe This Was 2 Years Ago Felt Like It Was A Couple Months Ago
Wall rides are legit
When a speedrun strat comes in clutch
Bro really said "I'm not lifting until I see God or a checkered flag" 🗿
Dale smiling down on you ❤
Bro figured out the speed glitch
not the first time chastain pulled a crazy move
The best racing: by any means necessary
Legendary!!
Still the greatest use of a gaming move of all time
