Hendrick Motorsports Sensation’s Cryptic Tweet Hints at Ultimate Jeff Gordon Honor, Leaving Fans Ecstatic

In his illustrious career, there is very little that Jeff Gordon hasn’t seen. With over 20 years of racing, he has been part of some of the most significant NASCAR events. It is truly a blessing for Hendrick Motorsports and its drivers to have Gordon in the Vice Chairman role. While the HMS drivers couldn’t ask for a better mentor, one of them recently shared a pretty cryptic tweet about him.

Winning the NASCAR Cup Series four times is no child’s play. While that is one of Gordon’s greatest flex, another one recently came to light and fans cannot control their excitement by witnessing a nostalgic event.

Hendrick Motorsports star shares a cryptic tweet involving NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon

With over 800 races, 93 wins, 325 top-fives, and 477 top-tens, Jeff Gordon definitely was a beast in the NASCAR Cup Series. However, post his retirement, the #24 car struggled with his replacement and eventually went ahead with William Byron. While Byron was the selected one, it sure came with a lot of responsibility and pressure.

Replacing Gordon was never easy, but so far the 25-year-old has done a decent job. With six Cup Series wins to his name, Byron has a long way to go and he certainly has the age on his side. Recently, he was involved in a notorious act as he tempted the NASCAR fanbase with a cryptic video on Twitter.

Bryon’s post displayed a throwback from 25 years back when NASCAR celebrated its 50th anniversary. It read, “25 years ago @JeffGordonWeb drove the @NASCAR 50th Anniversary car. Think it’s time to bring it back?” It was in 1998 that the three-time Daytona 500 winner was seen driving the anniversary car with a unique paint scheme. The #24 car grabbed all the attention with the scheme when he took part in the NASCAR All-Star Race.

The tweet showed a small video of the car in the eye-catching paint scheme. However, it remains uncertain when and where is to be brought back.

It didn’t take the NASCAR fanbase much time to recollect the amazing time when Byron posted the cryptic video. Unsurprisingly, many of them felt nostalgic as they shared their experience on Twitter.

“Heck Yeah  …… it’s going to be great seeing this car back out on the track  ….. such memories” 

“I’ll never forget that car. It was pretty awesome looking, and the color-changing paint scheme was pretty outrageous! It’s up there with my second-favorite @JeffGordonWeb paint scheme (also from the Winston): the Jurrasic Park one!”

“I think this is my first *made me feel old* moment, cause I remember this as a kid. No way it was 25 years ago though”

While some went down memory lane, many others couldn’t contain their excitement.

“Please don’t tease. Please really bring this back in a 75th edition”

“yes I am on my knees”

“Best paint scheme of all time”
