What caught the attention of fans after the race was Nemechek’s hot celebration. He burned out his tires in front of his race team but his wheels caught fire. NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series driver Zane Smith did something similar a few weeks ago.

At first, he tried to drive away from the fire but was asked to stop so safety officials could extinguish the flames. The fire left burn marks on the racetrack with less than 24 hours before the NASCAR Cup Series started their engines.
