The last time Noah Gragson was involved in something attention-grabbing on social media, it did not work out too well for him. But the driver of the #10 car has since redeemed himself both on the track and off of it. And, his latest antic on social media was proof enough, as Gragson recently got showered with appreciation online by several eminent personalities in the world of NASCAR.

Noah Gragson inadvertently put forth a humbling truth to veteran spotter

After Sunday’s race, Gragson took to his X handle to send out a very generic tweet about how his day went at the track and how he was looking forward to next weekend. But it was anything but generic if you explored it further. It seemed like the SHR star had posted four images that together made up his #10 car.

However, there is a secret behind it. If you click each of the panels, a vertical collage shows up portraying Gragson’s weekend. It was an ingenious edit and whoever cooked it up deserves a ton of praise. One of the biggest names in NASCAR who shared the picture and expressed how they felt about it was veteran spotter Brett Griffin.

The Door Bumper Clear co-host was left baffled by the edits and he accredited that to growing old. Griffin was so fascinated by it that he could not believe that Noah Gragson was the one who made the collages. “S*** like this baffles me. Getting old sucks,” the veteran spotter tweeted. “Ain’t no way @NoahGragson did that,” he further added.

It was not just personalities closer to the on-track action that Noah Gragson grabbed the attention of. His tweet was so innovative that it earned plaudits from NASCAR’s official content manager and one of the most eminent motorsports journalists in the States today.

The idea  so impressive that even NASCAR’s official content manager Zach Sturniolo could not help but share his thoughts about the tweet. “Neat way to do one of these quartered-picture posts if you click on each one individually,” he tweeted.

I honestly saw this post and didn’t bother to click on the photos until Zach flagged it,” he wrote on his X handle.

Noah Gragson had been out of NASCAR for quite a while ever since he was suspended last year, but the way he has come back, it’s like he never missed a beat. Tony Stewart might have ended up hiring a world-class race car driver who just needs the right guidance and motivation and a good car to win championships again.
