NASCAR Champ Chase Elliott Opening More Doors

From Autoweek

• Prepping for his first Rolex 24

• Elliott has raced late models on pavement and recently dirt midgets

• Teammate in IMSA to his former NASCAR teammate Jimmie Johnson

Chase Elliott, 2020 NASCAR Cup champion, has nothing to prove, but he insists on proving anyway that he loves racing – any kind of racing – whether it is pavement late models at the Snowball Derby in Pensacola, Florida, in December; dirt midgets at the Chili Bowl last week, and this week, the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s Daytona Prototypes.

“I just want to broaden my horizons,” he said in a video interview. Being a Cup champion – not to mention a very good driver, be it on an oval or a road course – has opened some doors to rides in other forms of motorsports, and Elliott is walking through as many as he can.
