Kyle Larson once again managed to prove why he is one of the most coveted NASCAR Cup Series drivers on the grid today. The Hendrick Motorsports driver managed to sweep the field at North Wilkesboro Speedway last weekend by managing to visit Victory Lane on two separate days and events at the old resurgent racetrack.

The 0.625-mile-long short track in North Carolina saw the Elk Grove, California native take victory on Saturday during the Craftsman Truck Series race, followed by a dominant performance on Sunday. The All-Star Race on Sunday night saw the 30-year-old drive through the field and keep Bubba Wallace in P2 at arm's length to win the $1 million cash prize.

Kyle Larson's victory celebrations were dotted with his customary burnout around the complete length of the track, along with his wife Katelyn Larson shot-gunning a beer on the start-finish line.

Much to the crowd's delight, Katelyn was seen pumping the crowd up by waving and cheering for her husband as the #5 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 driver stood beside his parked car on the track.

Not only bringing an end to a string of bad luck for Kyle Larson, two wins in two days at a track completely unknown to the dirt-track racer speaks of his ability to adapt to any situation on the track. The closest driver that finished close to Larson was Chase Elliott, who could only muster a P5 finish.


NASCAR fans react to Kyle Larson's wife shot-gunning a beer at North Wilkesboro

Fans at the NASCAR All-Star Race in North Wilkesboro were happy to see Kyle Larson and his wife Katelyn Larson celebrate in their own special way on the track as the latter went on to shotgun a beer and delight the crowd.

Just like fans on the track, Larson fans on the internet approved of his wife's celebrations after what the fans called a somewhat lackluster race in terms of excitement.

Here are some of the best reactions to the same:

"Not the hero we asked for, but the hero we need."
"Reminds me of the Talledega infield during the 80’s. Go girl!!"
"She chugged that faster than I did in my college days"
"I believe that's a chug, but your spirit is in the right place"
"Larsons wife is 80x cooler than him lmao"

Watch Kyle Larson try and continue his winning streak next weekend as NASCAR heads to Charlotte Motor Speedway for the Coca-Cola 600.
