Shrugging off the money matter, Keselowski instead offers a lucrative deal from his side. He first demanded mere presence on Hamlin’s podcast and then went on to appeal to Dale Earnhardt Jr.
His tweet read, “Can’t speak for @WilliamByron but If I win, No money required. I’ll even come on your podcast if you agree to do this. Seems like a fair deal.
@DaleJr
A couple of cases of Sundrop for the winner would be fun! Know their has to be a few laying around in a garage somewhere”
Could this possibly mean a cameo from Keselowski in one of the Late-Model Cars? It remains to be seen, but certainly presents a great scenario.
