Carson Hocevar celebrates NASCAR Talladega win by driving car while hanging out of window
Carson Hocevar had his own unique celebration after his first career NASCAR Cup Series win.
Carson Hocevar earned his first NASCAR Cup Series victory at Talladega on April 26, and he had a pre-planned celebration in mind. It took him a couple of minutes, but he finally was able to drive (and steer) his No. 77 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet down the front stretch while hanging out of the driver's side window.
Hocevar eventually stopped his car by bumping into the outside wall, nose first, before doing a burnout in front of the fans. Iconic. Carson Hocevar celebrates at Talladega hanging out the window.
