NASCAR driver Chase Elliott recently looked back at a wholesome moment in his racing career, where he competed against his father and former Cup Series champion, Bill Elliott.
Bill and Chase Elliott are the third father-son duo to have won a Cup Series championship, alongside Richard and Lee Petty, and Ned and Dale Jarrett.
Chase Elliott competes full-time in the Cup Series, piloting the #9 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports.
In his decade-long career, Elliott has achieved 19 Cup Series victories and claimed the 2020 Cup Series championship.
He also won the Xfinity Series title in 2014 and was named the Cup Series regular-season champion in 2022, further cementing his place among NASCAR’s elite.
In a recent interview with Llumar Racing, Elliott answered a few questions from his fans via a ‘Quick Questions’ session.
A curious fan inquired whether Elliott would want to race his father ‘Awesome Bill from Dawsonville’.
The race Elliott mentions racing his father in was the final race of the Camping World Superstar Racing Experience Series’ first season in 2021 (also known as SRX Racing), where Chase Elliott bested his father among other NASCAR legends such as Tony Stewart, Bobby Labonte, and Michael Waltrip.
Denny Hamlin was recently asked which NASCAR moment in his career would he want to relive again.
Hamlin chose a moment with fellow Cup Series driver Chase Elliott as his pick.
