A married NASCAR driver is generating buzz on social media after an influencer shared what she claims was an unexpected direct message.
The situation began when influencer Sara Blake Cheek posted a screenshot of a social media message she says allegedly came from Josh Bilicki.
In the screenshot, the message reads: “Where are you most ticklish?!?!” — a comment Cheek quickly addressed publicly.
“I said I love NASCAR… Not that I was in the market looking for a NASCAR driver,” she wrote. “Stay in your lane bud.”
Social Media Reaction Picks Up Quickly
The post gained traction across social platforms, with users weighing in on both the message and Cheek’s response.
Cheek later expanded on the situation in a video, explaining that her platform is focused on connecting with her audience, not engaging in private messages she described as inappropriate.
“I built my platform for athletes, to be able to monetize on their brand but also to connect with their fans,” she said. “Nowhere in that… does it say, ‘Slide into my DM’s… and ask me some weird f—s about where I’m ticklish at.’”
Reactions to the exchange have been mixed. Some dismissed it as an awkward attempt at humor, while others criticized the message and its tone.
What Has — and Has Not — Been Confirmed
Bilicki, who has made multiple starts across NASCAR’s national series, has not publicly confirmed or denied sending the message.
The screenshot shared online has not been independently verified.
As with many situations involving private messages, the full context of the exchange remains unclear.
A Story Still Unfolding
Moments like this can escalate quickly once they reach a wider audience, especially when they involve public figures and direct messages.
For now, the situation remains limited to social media, with no additional response from Bilicki as of publication.
The story continues to circulate across social media, drawing attention from both NASCAR fans and a broader online audience.
