Chase Elliot experienced the same disqualification two years ago handing his win to Erik Jones.

“I know the heartbreak and how it felt two years ago standing right here in this exact position and to be on the other end of the stick, loading up when everyone else is going through tech,” Elliott said. “It makes you want to crawl into a hole. That’s a feeling I’ve officially been on both ends of.

“So we’ll happily take this trophy home and get ready for Daytona.”

2015 Snowball Derby Highlights from Five Flags Speedway

Chase Elliott Wins 2015 Snowball Derby ResultsJohn Hunter Nemechek took the lead late in the event on lap 277 from Christopher Bell on a restart. However, Lap 285 saw a new leader as Bell regained the top spot. Nemechek dropped like a rock through in the field as his car began smoking with two laps remaining in the race. Smoke now bellowed from the No. 8 car as he sat on pit road. Zane Smith slowed through Turns 3 and 4 and Elliott was able to pass him for second-place.

“At that point, we were just trying to get round him and give ourselves a shot,” Elliott said. “We had been gaining on him the last couple of laps. There was a big fire down there. I think everybody was trying to take it easy, didn’t know what was going on. But regardless, I was happy to get around him.
