Chase Elliott Podcast: NASCAR debut, Mr. Hendrick, and more new colors for Bill 

By Doug Turnbull

In the several months since the last installment of the Chase Elliott Podcast, the youngster has had some big moments. He won the Snowflake Derby and nearly won the big Snowball Derby race at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola, Florida in December. He swept both the Pro and Super Late Model Speed Fest races at Lanier National Speedway in Braselton in January and then signed a three-year developmental driver deal with Hendrick Motorsports, aligning himself with NASCAR's most successful team. Now, just a couple of weeks removed from his NASCAR K&N East Series debut, Elliott reflects on these big moments, looks ahead to the rest of his new-look 2011 team, and gives the scoop on what his dad, Bill, will be doing in Talladega this weekend. Listen and/or Download
