Dale Earnhardt Jr. wasn't the only member of the Earnhardt family who was happy for Jimmie Johnson this past weekend after the six-time Sprint Cup Series champion tied Dale Earnhardt's mark of 76 career Cup wins.

Junior, who bestowed high praise on teammate Johnson after the milestone victory, was later joined in the offering of kind words by his older sister, Kelley.

Here's what Kelley -- who is the vice president of JR Motorsports and one of NASCAR's leading businesswomen -- had to say on Twitter not long after Johnson's historic victory at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Johnson, for his part, was equally gracious, holding three fingers out of his window during his victory lap in tribute to the late driver of the black No. 3 car.
