At age 15, Chase won his first NASCAR K&N Pro Series race of his career after taking the lead on lap 145 at Iowa Speedway. He stayed out front over the last five laps of the race and survived a green-white-checkered flag finish that extended the race to 154 laps. “A lot of people talk about my dad and having big shoes to fill,” Elliott said afterwards. “At the same time I’m me and I’m out here racing and Dad’s not. For me, if I can just do the best I can do – I just got to do the best I can do, that’s all I can ask for.”
