Ross Chastain vs. Joe Gibbs Racing is currently the best rivalry in the NASCAR Cup Series.
Trackhouse Racing N0.1 Ross Chastain has now had issues with all four of Joe Gibbs Racing’s drivers this season.
Sunday at Richmond saw both JGR drivers Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. got tangled up in Ross Chastain mess in the beginning of stage 3.
The Trackhouse Racing man was too deep heading into the third corner, which led to making contact with the left-rear of Kyle Busch’s No. 18 Toyota ride that triggered a multi-car crash in Stage 3 at Richmond.

“We got Chastain’d this week. We were his victim.”- said Busch in his post-race interview with NBC NASCAR
