A lighthearted Twitter exchange between NASCAR driver Chase Briscoe and popular troll account @nascarcasm had fans laughing. It all started when Briscoe shared an edited video that showed him playing sports like basketball, rugby, MMA, surfing, and baseball. The video is funny and exaggerates Briscoe’s athletic side, alongside poking fun at the general notion that racecar drivers aren’t considered athletes.
Briscoe posted the original video on X, captioned:
“And they say racecar drivers aren’t athletes…”
In response to Briscoe’s tweet, @nascarcasm—a self-proclaimed “freelance troll for NASCAR.com”—replied with another humour-filled video. This time, Briscoe was edited dancing.
“Or dancers.”
Chase Briscoe kept the joke going by replying to @nascarcasm’s video with a witty comment saying:
“Haters say it’s photoshopped.”

Chase Briscoe on the accidental leak regarding his move to Joe Gibbs Racing
Chase Briscoe has been the center of attention for more than just his social media. His move to Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) for the 2025 season, replacing Martin Truex Jr., was accidentally revealed by Christopher Bell. Even though the leak was unplanned, Briscoe took it in stride and recounted the story with a laugh on the Dinner with Racers podcast.
During the episode, Briscoe talked about how Bell’s slip-up was a surprise to him, due to poor cell reception at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Bell texted Briscoe with an apology, but Briscoe had no idea about what had happened until approached by a reporter at a sprint car race later.
"I thought he just maybe said something stupid... I'm at the sprint car track and this reporter comes up to me and he's like 'What do you think about what Christopher said earlier?', I'm like, 'I don't know what you're talking about'. He goes 'Oh, he said you're going to JGR next year... His phone worked, he showed me the clip and it was really funny."
Joe Gibbs Racing handled the premature announcement quite professionally, quickly confirming Briscoe joining its team for the 2025 season. Briscoe is set to drive the No. 19 Toyota Camry XSE, with Bass Pro Shops as the top sponsor. This move is the end of Briscoe’s time with Stewart-Haas Racing, where he won the NASCAR Cup Series Rookie of the Year title in his debut season which was 2021.
Along with that, at Stewart-Haas Racing, Briscoe also won his first NASCAR Cup Series race at Phoenix in 2022, followed by another one at the Cook Out Southern 500 in 2024. Over the period of four seasons, he had 30 top-ten finishes and two pole positions for the team.
