The Dogecar has taken the internet by storm. In case it's somehow passed you by, here's the lowdown. The Dogecoin subreddit - a Reddit community for the Doge-based cryptocurrency Dogecoin - got together to raise $55,000-worth of Dogecoin for Josh Wise, a rookie Nascar racer, to enter the Aaron's 499 race at Talladega Superspeedway last weekend.

The car was wrapped in a hilarious Doge-inspired livery and took to the course, getting as high as fourth with around 20 laps to go. Wise's #98 Ford eventually finished 20th, becoming an internet sensation in the process and winning the hearts of thousands online.

Following the race, Wise headed to Reddit to conduct an AMA (Ask Me Anything), so we've rounded up some highlights from the thread.
