Wow. Much swift. So zoom. The people, or Redditors rather, have spoken and soon we will see a Doge racing around the Talladega Speedway in Alabama.

Redditors decided to crowdfund a huge push with their Dogecoins – a meme turned legitimate cryptocurrency – after noticing that NASCAR driver Josh Wise was without a sponsor.

Less than a week later, the community behind Doge4NASCAR managed to pool together 67.8 million DOGE – approximately US$55,000 – to successfully fund the racer.

So what does 67.8 million Dogecoins buy? A NASCAR race car all wrapped up Dogecoin livery. Wise’s #98 Ford Dodge will debut with its brand spanking new Shiba Inu façade at the Aaron’s 499 in Talladega.

There’s no final design yet, as Redditors are still holding a design competition to determine the official livery of Dogecoin.

According to Ben Doernberg, a Dogecoin foundation member and one of the subreddit’s moderators, over 1,200 donations were made, each averaging around $41.

One generous donor gave a $15,000 donation… by accident. Instead of typing in 2,000,000 Dogecoins, Moolah, a well-respected Dogecoin entrepreneur and innovator, accidentally hit one more zero, making it 20,000,000. Thus $1,500 became $15,000.

As for Josh Wise, he seems to be taking the news pretty well.

Just a week ago this was only an idea and now it's a reality. So thankful for all the fans, @reddit community and @dogecoin for doing this.

Here’s how they wrap a car – ubercool video:
