I was at this race. Only Nascar race I've been too (Canadian). My dad brought me here to cheer me up after my divorce when I was 25. Gordon was my hero growing up. Seeing him win as I sat there with my dad was the greatest feeling I think I've ever had. It was a huge win!

Man, I still vividly remember this race. Trevor Bayne's crash, the Edwards wreck, the big one, Ragan trying to knock the wall down, and the battle at the end. I was bouncing off the walls when Jeff knocked Kyle out of the way.

My favorite nascar driver of all time. My sister got to meet Gordon (she won a contest that sent her to the Superbowl, and she was invited to this party (with celebs) and Gordon was there). She got me a signed autograph of his. Absolutely jealous, a Superbowl and meeting Jeff

I was a huge Gordon fan as a kid, but drifted away from NASCAR for a long time. Him doing a burnout in the grass in a COT was the only thing I remembered from watching him race. This video fills me with so much nostalgia.

This brings Back memories. It's crazy to see how many different drivers were racing back then. I have been a diehard fan of the sport since 93 i was 3 years old. Still love it to this day. At this time I was fan of Gordon since his rookie year. Now that he has moved on I'm a chase elliott fan. I basically took the drivers who took over the 24 car. I'm excited to see him win the championship this year with 5 wins at 24 years old. I guess I'm lucky with who I pick. Love conversating with other fans. I'm one of the few that don't get discouraged by change in the sport. You learn to adapt, it makes it more fun than always complaining.

And 2007 with 6 wins and 30 top 10 finishes he should have been the champion he entered the last 10 races with about a 270 point lead to have all of them taken away. He would have rapped up the championship with one race left just like he did in 1998 when won 13 races.

Sounds like it was partially because much of Jeff Gordon’s pit crew were on his team when he raced the #5 for HMS. One thing I have picked up from hearing many of the drivers on podcasts, as much as they want to win, they want wins for their crews.
