I was a Make-A-Wish kid in 2003 and met many of the drivers at Martinsville. Robby was one of the nicest drivers I met, he took me inside his car hauler and showed me around. Jr. was the main driver I wanted to meet and he was really cool also. However out of all the other drivers Robby was the nicest driver. He really seem to enjoy talking and showing me around.

Robby has one AOWR shenanigan: "During his time in open-wheel, Gordon earned a reputation as a tough and sometimes overly aggressive racer. According to Gordon, though his decision to leave open wheel was based largely on "safety concerns," significantly more plausible an explanation to Gordon's estrangement from top-tier opened-wheel racing in North America is directly attributable to a high profile incident during the 1996 Grand Prix of Cleveland, where Gordon was evidenced to have exited his vehicle mid-race, after a mechanical failure, and while standing atop his car, Gordon kicked the Ford Motor Company logo on live national television." EDIT: Also, another GT3 music.

Like, talk about total impotence on NASCAR's part - what exactly did they expect? Also I absolutely agree that Robby got robbed in that race; what is it with Montreal and screwjobs...?

My best memory of Robby Gordon is from one of the races at Indianapolis when he drove for Felix Sabates. Robby was complaining about the motor not having any power. Felix got on the radio and cussed Robby out for a good two or three laps and used enough F Bombs that a sailor would have been embarrassed. Sadly, we will never see this in a video on youtube because IF the TV recorded it, they would never play it.

My pops used to crew for IndyCar. And he happen to work for him the year that Robby Gordon ran out of gas when he was about to win the Indy 500. That year Robbie took the whole team out to dinner and then rented a go kart track for all the guys. You don’t often hear drivers doing things like that especially at the 500 when there’s a lot of extra heads around that are there just to help for that race only. Seems to be a pretty good guy.

Too bad you only covered on track shenanigans. My favorite Robby Gordon moment was in 2011 in the garage at Las Vegas Motor Speedway when he punched Kevin Conway. It was the culmination of a long running dispute. The previous year Conway drove a car owned by Gordon because Conway supposedly had sponsorship from “Extendz.” Turns out Extendz never paid up and Gordon was rightly pissed. Robby Gordon decided to settle the breach of contract dispute in his own way.

Legit Robby is the reason I’m racing cars now. Met him back in 04 at Atlanta motor speedway when he did a signing. He chatted with me for probably 10min asked if I wanted to race. Told him yes but probably never would. Dude literally said “with that attitude you won’t. Just try and see what happens.” Sixteen years later here I am race license in hand.

I call that last race "The Montreal Screwjob". I watched that entire race live on ESPN. It was so obvious that Nascar was looking for an6y reason to keep Gordon from winning that race. I have never seen anytime in Nascar where they penalize the car that was spun out! I loved Robbie's reaction. I was busting a gut watching him doing burnouts in Victory Lane with Harvick.

Just a couple of years ago, his father Bob Gordon commited a double suicide along with Robby's step-mother. It was a huge lost for Robby. I know his father was a race driver for SCORE. Bob Gordon ran in the Parker 400 when I was a kid from the 1980 to 84. My dad was a manager for Terrible Herbst at that time. We get these drivers stopping at the gas station including Robby's dad. Sad that Robby's faced tragedy.
