Hey r/NASCAR! We’re Spectrum, and we’re excited to cohost an AMA with u/carsonhocevar, driver of the No. 77 Spectrum Chevrolet for Spire Motorsports.​

It’s been a big year for Carson. He picked up his first career Cup Series win at Talladega in April, beating Chris Buescher to the line by just 0.114 seconds, and went on to earn his first spot in the Chase. Now he’s heading back to where it all started on Sunday, Oct. 25.​

Carson will be live in this thread on Tuesday, Oct. 20 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM ET to answer your questions. Ask about superspeedway racing, that photo finish, the windowsill victory lap, race weekend life or anything else.​

Can’t make it Tuesday? Drop your questions below ahead of time and upvote the ones you want him to see. Carson will answer as many as he can when he goes live.​
