NASCARS Social -Media -Buzz: Corey Lajoie, SVG and the viral leg work jokes

Nascar lover, as the exciting world of the Stock Auto racing, presented another buzzworthy moment. It is generally known that Nascar lives from high-speed cards and drama, with the drivers push their stick cars on the edge. However, it is often from the route and in the area of ​​social media, in which some of the most entertaining exchange takes place – a digital arena where fans and drivers Witzel and revales exchange as if they were replacing color on the Bristol Motor Speedway.

In the latest digital drama, the spotlight is located on Shane van Gisbergen, better known as SVG, and Corey Lajoie. SVG, a legend in the V8 supercars series, which has become his head with his victory in Chicago, and Lajoie, a well-known figure for his podcast “Stacking Pennies”, recently had an amusing exchange. Lajoie made an unusual request – he wanted to see more from SVG's chassis. Whether this was for analytical purposes or personal curiosity remained a mystery. But SVG, always the opportunist, could not let the moment go away. “It's free, brother. Save your pennies, ”he noticed and triggered a meme that will surely linger in the NASCAR social media area.

Fast advance into the present, where Chris Buescher, the Wheelmann number 17 Mustang for RFK Racing, published a fascinating video of his footwork on the challenging COTA racetrack. This video offered an insightful insight into the intensive precision and effort that these drivers carry out during a race to check their 700 hp cpages or rather carry out their feet. But social media, the true jewel, took this opportunity to enjoy Corey Lajoies. A fan in a tweet humorously in SVGS quip at Lajoie: “Hey, @coreylajoie will pay for this content. Do not publish it for free, ”Lajoie assures that everything was in joke.

The playful back and forth between SVG and Lajoie made a platform for harmless fun to the Nascar community. A fan humorous pointed out: “@coreylajoie Now I know that this is not SVGS, but it's something and it's free.” Other fans closed the fun with comments such as “Free footwork? In this economy?! “And” don't say it Corey Lajoie. “The motif behind these comments is clear – Lajoie's special request in combination with the funny return of SVG has animated the Nascar world, and Buescher's video was the perfect opportunity for everyone to participate.

However, not all fans made fun of Lajoie. Some estimated the video for his original intent to present the immense skills and the immense talent that was necessary to maneuver these mighty machines without staging. “There is not enough appreciation for the skills it takes to maneuver these large heavy stick cars in these road courses,” said a fan rightly. Buescher is indeed competent on road courses on how his victory over SVG shows itself in Watkins Glen last year.

This episode of Banter and Witisms underlines the changing dynamics between drivers and fans. What used to be a private world is now becoming a source of entertainment for fans and drivers, as is reflected in Joe Gibbs 'Coach Rizz' Video and Brad Keselowski's paid -subject commercial. Drivers and teams recognize how important it is to connect with fans at a personal level, and humor seems to be the best way to achieve this. This mixture of sportiness, humor and fan interaction proves to be a winning formula in the Nascar world.
