NASCAR Community is one that is quite active, to say the least. And the fans are very prompt when it comes to leaving comments about a driver or any other thing. However, sometimes those comments are outright funny. Or, with Harrison Burton, quite creative.

Since these comments are so funny, NASCAR made an entire series out of it. Of course, it’s called “NASCAR drivers read mean tweets”. One fan aimed a very fascinating comment at Jeff Burton’s son, Harrison Burton.

“It’s been a rough start to say the least. Fourteenth-place is our best finish, so that’s not good. There’s no hiding that,” He added, “I think there’s been some growing pains there and I feel like now we’re getting rolling in the right direction.”

“So, I’m excited to get back to the race track and hopefully be in that spot to try and contend for wins and just take it one step at a time and get some top-10s, get some top-fives and build there.

“I think if I get in a spot where I’m racing for a win, I’m going to be pretty aggressive for a multiple amount of reasons. Obviously, it would really change my whole life. I think it would be amazing for the Wood Brothers to get their 100th win.”

In the end, his racing career in the Cup Series stands. And, he has yet to get in the top 10 and have a good finish. So, will he be able to get more performance out of the car in the upcoming races?
