Carson Hocevar<\/a> has been making waves on NASCAR<\/a> tracks all season long, and now he\u2019s doing the same outside of race weekends.
<\/p>\n \nThe man they call \u2018Hurricane\u2019 has been terrific for the sport in 2025 – at least if you write about it in the media. A never-ending supply line of racetrack beef and wonderful IDGAF reactions to those flashpoints, as well as being a real talent.

<\/p>\n \nHocevar, who is just 22 years old, figures to be a lightning rod on the grid for many years to come, and his antics are making him something of a cult hero to fans too.
\nWhen he is not squeezing every last bit of speed out of a car on a track, Hocevar is likely scouring the social media platform for his next purchase.
<\/p>\n Hocevar living his best life, on Facebook<\/p>\n \nIf you check out Hocevar\u2019s Twitter page<\/a>, you\u2019ll find the NASCAR phenom proudly showing off his Marketplace buys, including his latest – a beautiful 1976 Oldsmobile Cutlass, listed in early August for $17,500 by a seller in Brentwood, Tennessee.
<\/p>\n \nAs you can see, it wasn\u2019t just any Cutlass<\/a>, it was adorned in the paint scheme of the famed No. 28 \u2018Gray Ghost\u2019, driven to the fastest ever Daytona 500 win by Buddy Baker way back in 1980.
<\/p>\n \nFans went wild for the latest buy, with reactions including:
<\/p>\n \n\u201cSomething tells me you’re gonna have the coolest collection of cars that you actually drive!!\u201d
<\/p>\n \n\u201cYou\u2019re living large, Hocevar! Good times!\u201d
<\/p>\n \n\u201cWell done!!! That’s a piece of history!!!!\u201d
<\/p>\n The coolest thing<\/p>\n \nThis is not the first Hocevar Marketplace purchase which has had fans drooling in 2025 – earlier this year he caused a huge star at Darlington by turning up with a 1997 Silverado pickup sporting an iconic Dale Earnhardt<\/a> paint scheme.
<\/p>\n \n\u201cI always thought that was the coolest thing, Hocevar explained after making that particular purchase.
<\/p>\n \n\u201cI always thought it\u2019d be cool to have a NASCAR (car) be my street car basically, but not like an actual race car but have it decked out like that.
<\/p>\n \n\u201cSo I\u2019ve always wanted one of those Monte Carlos since I was a kid. That Dale truck just reminded me of that.\u201d
<\/p>\n
\nThe latest reason they love him? His new-found obsession with buying iconic cars and trucks on Facebook Marketplace.
