Twitter
Tuesdays
(NASCAR Style)
Well, that unfortunate time of year has arrived. The 2012 NASCAR season is done and in the books. It's been an incredible season and we were able to see a brand new champion crowned this year at the season finale in Miami, that being Brad Keselowski. We've had a great amount of interesting tweets come in throughout the season and I hope they have all brought you a smile, or a laugh, or a bit of knowledge on a driver that you didn't know before. Don't worry, though the season might be done, these drivers don't go into hibernation when it comes to Twitter, so Twitter Tuesday's will continue throughout the winter months. Let's delve into the season finale edition of Twitter Tuesday!
Fish in the boat, first one u know what that means!!!
-@gbiffle (Greg Biffle) on a fishing trip before the Homestead-Miami season finale weekend began. That's a nice looking mahi-mahi!
Road tripping to my home state of Florida. Hard to believe this is the last race. Kinda wish it wasn't over. I've been having a lot of fun
-@aric_almirola (Aric Almirola) and his thoughts heading into the final race of the season. I agree, Aric, I know myself and many more NASCAR fans have had fun this season too.
-@JeffGordonWeb (Jeff Gordon) thanking his longtime sponsor DuPont. As of this past weekend, Gordon has had DuPont as his sponsor for 20 years and ran a special paint scheme to commemorate their partnership.

Hey @keselowski I got you the front row
-@joeylogano (Joey Logano) after he originally won the pole for the Sprint Cup race, but then crashed in practice and had to go to a backup car. That allowed Keselowski, who was third, to move up to the pole position for the final race.
hey @keselowski, would this be a bad weekend for me to pay you back for all those times you wrecked me? i mean i do owe ya a couple.

Who is everyone picking today? I'm going to take @JeffGordonWebto win the race and @keselowski to win the championship

Congrats @keselowski, Paul Wolf, Roger Penske an all of Penske on your championship. It was a lot of fun battling with you!
-@JimmieJohnson (Jimmie Johnson) who nearly took the championship from Keselowski in the final race. This is why the 5-time champ Johnson is so respected throughout NASCAR.

-@JeffGordonWeb (Jeff Gordon) after he won the season finale race at Homestead. It's Gordon's 87th career win and his first at Homestead, which means Gordon only needs to win at Kentucky to win at every NASCAR track he's raced on.
