Twitter and Dale Jr. are cartoon subjects that can’t be ignored

Over the past few weeks, I've done a few cartoons on the tweeting talents of Brad Keselowski and I approach the subject again today in one of my sketches from the press box at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It's one of those great news stories that is perfect for cartoon ideas and I'm sure it's a story that we will hear about again as the NASCAR season progresses.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s car was a rocket early in the race, which made it possible for him to lead more laps today than he led in all of last year. This is also the kind storyline that I can't ignore when it comes to creating a cartoon.

Below are two sketches I drew today at the track.
