Last week, we told you about an online community coming together to help fund Josh Wise and the Phil Parsons Racing No. 98 Chevrolet SS.
Well, they pulled it off ... raising $55,000 worth of the peer-to-peer cryptocurrency Dogecoin. Wise is pumped.
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?

The whole thing is very impressive. And a big win for underfunded teams everywhere.
