Busch Light Clash Winner Joey Logano Sends Strong Message to NASCAR Rivals as Action Moves to Daytona

NASCAR driver for Team Penske, Joey Logano really means business with his hashtag for the 2022 season. ‘The 22 in 22’, is what Logano has been using to mark his car number alongside the year, sending out a message ‘This is my year’.

But putting out marketing hashtags is one thing, and bringing them to life is another.

Thankfully for Joey Logano and his fans, the Mustang driver has started off on the right foot in bringing his hashtag to life. Logano won the inaugural Busch Clash at the Coliseum, starting his season with an important, somewhat historic win considering the new venue and the new Next Gen car.

And with the Daytona 500 up next, Logano has his eyes set on the prize; his priority – he wants to win.

This was a message he sent out to his fans in a recent tweet in which he gave a shoutout to his team, his sponsors, and NASCAR as he looked ahead to the race at the ‘World Center of Racing.’

“Amazing start to the ‘22 season! Shout out to @NASCAR for putting on an amazing event! Shout out to @Team_Penske, @FordPerformance and my No. 22 @shellracingus @Pennzoil Team for all their hard work on building this short track rocket. #The22In22,” Logano wrote. 

“Now let’s go get @DAYTONA!”
