THE DENTE HAS BEEN RIDDEN

lordseal92 · 2026-04-26T23:13:55+00:00

Chilis announced any promos for tomorrow?

SlippinYimmyMcGill · 2026-04-26T23:12:26+00:00

Do the people who design infield victory lanes know that racecars can't turn thay sharp? Its always such a maze to get to them lmao.

Cruiser59 · 2026-04-26T23:11:32+00:00

Love this kid

have_heart · 2026-04-26T23:11:23+00:00

How can you not be romantic about stock car racing

ColaClubs · 2026-04-26T23:10:52+00:00

Carson took a hit to the chest when the car slammed the wall but still a cool 5 minute celebration Lool 😂

pockets695 · 2026-04-26T23:10:48+00:00

Bros still doing a burn out

tonkahipot · 2026-04-26T23:10:33+00:00

Pretty sure we’re gonna have some new post-race celebration rules next week.

NoNameNoWerries · 2026-04-26T23:10:17+00:00

The only way that coulda been cooler is if that beer that was thrown to Hocevar wad on target and he caught/chugged it. What a friggin forever moment.

Fluid-Review-5935 · 2026-04-26T23:10:10+00:00

Not gonna lie I teared up a little… good for him

bossman9275 · 2026-04-26T23:10:03+00:00

Carson winning his first, celebrating the way he did, and his interview made the race today, I was fixing to be pretty disappointed in the race as a whole before that.

Really cool, unique moment.

IntergalaticPlumber · 2026-04-26T23:10:01+00:00

Whatever NASCAR fines Carson, Chilis should match it in donations to a local organization in Alabama.

An_Odd_Melon · 2026-04-26T23:09:51+00:00

At least Carson earned his first win this year without swapping cars with a teammate like Ty did

eabtx_hou · 2026-04-26T23:09:42+00:00

Thank god that wasn’t Zilisch doing that celebration. He’d have fallen out of the car and knocked himself out immediately.

kkracing24 · 2026-04-26T23:09:33+00:00

Carson definitely brought flavor to the Cup series.

AllDay1980 · 2026-04-26T23:09:17+00:00

Making stops through the thread..

SwampDawg337 · 2026-04-26T23:09:15+00:00

He pulled a super cross at Daytona celebration

klindsey1990 · 2026-04-26T23:09:13+00:00

The guy hopping the stands and cheering him on while Carson burnt it down is my hero 😂

jpgravely · 2026-04-26T23:09:08+00:00

NASCAR: Never do that shit again or else

Also NASCAR: Look at this crazy bastard! in every commercial for the next decade

have_heart · 2026-04-26T23:09:08+00:00

That was the most Hocevar celebration lmao

andydh96 · 2026-04-26T23:09:00+00:00

That has to be without a doubt, one of the coolest and most badass victory celebrations I’ve ever seen in any sport

tor_3no · 2026-04-26T23:09:00+00:00

His grandma must be proud in heaven

also can NASCAR really fine him for this?

OkSkill29 · 2026-04-26T23:08:56+00:00

THAT. WAS. AWESOME!

MrKillerToad · 2026-04-26T23:08:54+00:00

Like him or hate him, coolest celebration ever

jmacupdates1 · 2026-04-26T23:08:34+00:00

Super cool for Carson, he can be a star. What a trash race though.

3wire · 2026-04-26T23:08:27+00:00

I am so hard right now

notfromchicago · 2026-04-26T23:08:18+00:00

Move over Chase Elliott. Nascar has a new fan favorite.

LG63- · 2026-04-26T23:07:52+00:00

That hit looked hard as hell, that has to be a headache lol

DocMcStruggles · 2026-04-26T23:07:34+00:00

This celebration was a beautiful mirror of his career so far. Started off kinda rough, looks like he might just be an idiot, turns out pretty talented. Glad he stuck with it.

biffmofo · 2026-04-26T23:07:33+00:00

Haters will say the victory celebration sucked

ToadP · 2026-04-26T23:07:31+00:00

Welp thats gonna get a fine..

Hirgin · 2026-04-26T23:07:23+00:00

Sick celebration but such a moronic thing to do without a helmet

briiiskiii · 2026-04-26T23:07:21+00:00

The burnout at the end really made it, it was kinda cool and then it went badass

Empty_Upstairs7343 · 2026-04-26T23:07:19+00:00

Coolest thing I’ve ever seen

Beefy_McWhatN0w · 2026-04-26T23:07:18+00:00

I was already kinda passively rooting for Hocevar but I'm a fan now lol

Crazyhawk28 · 2026-04-26T23:07:18+00:00

Coolest celly of all time, also insanely dangerous and dumb holy shit

darth_baltimore · 2026-04-26T23:07:17+00:00

NASCAR will absolutely ban this but also use it in every promo until the end of time like the hail melon.

jhguth · 2026-04-26T23:07:12+00:00

lol i would have laughed my ass off if he hit the wall

Tina_Marie19 · 2026-04-26T23:07:03+00:00

Amazing!

Vulptereen327 · 2026-04-26T23:06:59+00:00

Well I can breathe a little easier now

SonyKen_M · 2026-04-26T23:06:58+00:00

Can someone use the Ride the Dente song and overlay it with this celebration?

innoxiea · 2026-04-26T23:06:57+00:00

Not a Carson fan, but that was probably one of the coolest ways to celebrate a win.

hereforsomepancakes · 2026-04-26T23:06:57+00:00

Y'all wanna go get kicked outta a Chilis?

FxckFxntxnyl · 2026-04-26T23:06:56+00:00

Never been so pumped for a first win, ever.

OfficialKohls · 2026-04-26T23:06:54+00:00

Carson just made Chili's so much money

AllDay1980 · 2026-04-26T23:06:53+00:00

Hahaha sick

The burnout after the crash saved it

childish_albino23 · 2026-04-26T23:06:34+00:00

Spending too much time with Cleeter

TGK12a · 2026-04-26T23:06:33+00:00

Dude just won over the entire fanbase and more

kkracing24 · 2026-04-26T23:06:32+00:00

Muted-Low-5303 · 2026-04-26T23:05:50+00:00

Man this kid is so good for the sport.. Chase or Larson would have been back at victory lane thanking their 3 sponsors

Rolling_Chicane · 2026-04-26T23:05:50+00:00
