Took some screenshots of the win! Insane crash behind me as I crossed the line. Wrote out this narrative in hopes you close your eyes and play the absolute cinema. What an incredible race! Sof 2020. I am running the NAPA Chase Elliott car! 

Begin story: 

So yesterday was the IRL Daytona 500. Chase Elliott almost had it… then got slide-tackled and finished 4th. I told myself, don’t worry Chase… I’ll bring it home. Time to LOCK IN.

Qualified P3.
Race stayed green all the way to lap 170.
Made an alliance with the #1 car, every pit cycle, we linked up, even when we weren’t near each other on track. At one point I got a massive slingshot from 10th to 1st. Nobody wanted to leave the line… but I had the guts. Four others followed when they saw the run.

Still had to cycle through pits and ended up back in 10th working up to 5th. Guy ahead asks if I’ll go with him if he jumps the line. I say, ‘Let’s do it.’ Next lap we go—push him to the front… and he leaves me out to dry. I’m like, no problem. Still had guys pushing me.

Later, when I got another run, he tried to slam the door on me. I tapped into the no-hesi instincts, dove inside, and took control of the bottom lane. Had a lapped car pushing me with nothing to lose.

Then… cautions. Two of them.
Last one with two laps to go.
I’m on the grid like: Speed. I am speed.
Doc Hudson in my ear.
Chase Elliott and Max Verstappen on my shoulders.

Green flag.
Good restart. The guy behind me who jumped earlier tucks in. Coming to the white, I know he’s backing up for a run. I go high to block it. He tries the inside I slam the door again.
Final turn. He jumps out once more… but nobody goes with him. Left out to dry just like he did to me earlier.

Car behind me gives the push of a lifetime.
Big wreck in the pack behind. I finish 0x

And just like that… I can proudly say, I'm an iracing
