From the tight-knit community of Alva to all over the nation and beyond, all any NASCAR fan could talk about was THAT move.
. The entire, close-knit Alva community was absolutely beside itself in appreciation, if not entirely surprised by Chastain’s gumption.
And Ross Chastain has left absolutely no question how much he would love to give Alva more to talk about, even something to celebrate. There’s nothing he wants more right now than to become the first Floridian to win aCup Series championship trophy - and he’s getting his shot in Sunday’s NASCAR 2022 season finale at Phoenix Raceway .
“It won’t always be wide-open around the wall in this highlight reel of highlight reels,’’ Chastain continued. “but I’m proud of it. I’m proud that we’ve moved the needle for fans and casual people that were not fans, but they see it and they want to now experience NASCAR. That makes them come to the track, feel that roar, that thunder when we go by.’’
His actual arrival in NASCAR’s big leagues wasn’t easy, however. He spent years driving non-competitive equipment just to be a part of the show and meet people. He got a promising opportunity with one of the big name teams, only to have sponsorship fall away unexpectedly and the team shut down mid-year.
