NASCAR physics

[Skalld]

Finally, all of my years of video game racing ...strategies... are being recognized by professionals.

He actually later said he "...remembers playing Nascar '05 on the gamecube and doing it but never thought it would actually work"

[jaimao]

I've been doing this on Gran Turismo for almost 20 years and now someone finally did it in real life 😅

“The way to go faster is, one, to go faster” I love it.

[timtimberman]

Three strategies in racing: 1. Go fast 2. Travel less distance 3. Crash faster than everyone else and cross your fingers

Every video gamer understood this instinctually and was glad to see that validated.

"You can't crash into something if you're already crashing into said thing". Great quote Hank

[Ryuzakku]

Good news Hank, NASCAR has said that as of this moment they will not be making the wall-hug move illegal, as it can only work at a few short tracks and it can be blocked by the leader hugging the top.

...You'd have to be willing to risk your car to block but a win is a win!

[vzgsxr]

Next generation of NASCAR will have an extra set of wheels on the side of the car to roll against the wall. 🤔😂

[cjhowell]

"and this is going to be immediately made illegal" lol I had the same thought. "That was awesome, no way that's legal in 2 weeks"

[jamchiroptera]

I just imagine Hank bursting in the ESPN studio with crazy hair and a lab coat saying “DID SOMEBODY SAY PHYSICS?”

"I do, I understand. And I can make it so you understand too. Let's do it!" This is precisely the attitude of an amazing teacher. I wish we had more good teachers... I wish we all valued teachers so that we would have more good teachers...

This maneuver is the epitome of " hit top gear and let Jesus take the wheel"

[trashpandaO]

I realized this happened in forza but I never thought it could be applicable irl

[wormmm_h]

"I do, I understand, and i can make it so you understand too!" Might be one of my favorite quotes ever.

[benniboi]

"I do! I understand, and I can make it so you understand too!" Best teaching quote

[EchoLog]

that nascar dude straight up found the booster pads on the Mario kart 180 turns

[wavemade]

"You're already crashing into it"

[NullCipherZero]

Ross Chastain's Wild Wall Ride was a once-in-a-lifetime moment. He did this on the final lap, not caring how much he destroyed his car in the process... and it bloody worked. I've been watching NASCAR for almost 30 years and nothing, but nothing will ever match this man's crazy, inspired, Hail Melon racing move.

This guy takes "rubbing is racing" to another level
