Former NASCAR driver Kyle Larson is selling his brand new New Carolina house. The former Chip Ganassi driver got the ax after using the N-word during an iRacing event.

A Reddit user by the name ‘Sportsguy_44_45_’ reveals his discovery. The disgraced driver has put up his house for sale on Zillow. The newly constructed house was built this year only for the driver in a prime NC location. However, his untasteful comment during the iRacing event spoiled his plans.

The luxurious house comes with 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Other amenities include a swimming pool, fireplace, outdoor kitchen, and a beach view. The website prices the house at a whopping $5 million.
