Robby Gordon (Slingshot Engage)

TT#77 Robby Gordon practicing his NASCAR Drafting skills during the 2015 Parker 425.

[@TASMAN-1]

Proves to me, no matter how fast you go, there's ALWAYS someone who wants to pass you!!!

[@mrstuperstefan]

My thought was that if HE can go faster than you, then YOU can go faster than you!

[@charlieandhudsonspal1312]

Like the MA Pike. Doing 92 with a Statie right behind me trying to pass. That’s no shite.

[@tacitworm2687]

😂

[@ThreeDPrintDesigns]

it's always easier to be right behind someone, studying how they handle the terrain ahead. Takes the guess work out if what you can handle.

[@ericgustafsson9008]

@@ThreeDPrintDesigns Not true for me. You have to react to fast because it's so hard to see what's in front.

[@thesuperjed1]

Wow! Definitely some of the best trophy truck footage ever recorded! Gives a true perspective of how fast these rigs really are across the desert. (And how mad Robby Gordon is) And that sound...... mmmm mm. Pure music to my ears

[@res0zn4c]

Now that looks fun.

[@hiitsrudd8567]

Awesome!

[@jaamshehd7890]

Hahaha 👍❣️

[@Kamanya]

I was thinking how fucking scary it must be to be Robbie's navigator?! I'd have a dent in the footwell where my imaginary brake would be.

[@Largecar2165]

LOL totally agree on the brake Robby is the shit.

[@sudsysutherland359]

I believe Robby Gordon’s son is the navigator at times.

[@barrysims9906]

Brakes! What brakes?😂

That motor roar is music to my ears, I can just close my eyes and enjoy the beautiful sounds they make😍🥰

[@jimmieroan9881]

@@TRKISH324 i remember when f1 was discussing how quiet the new cars were and/or the electric several years ago, they actually considered a sound system to simulate the old engine sound, and actually did put skid plates on the tub to throw sparks

[@weltwelt5993]

The level of trust displayed is astonishing.. drafting and rear ending on a single lane dirt path at 100 mph... It looked and sounded like a tarantino chase scene...lol

[@KrummyProductions]

Welt Welt ... true. As that motor was getting close to peak across that desert stretch at one point, I wonder how fast they were really going!

[@edsonbojorquez2913]

Trust me, there is no trust in off road racing

[@m.b.82]

I did not know there were chase scenes in tarantino films, except maybe thaf Kurt Russel one

[@BSDShoes]

@@edsonbojorquez2913 I used to race dirt bikes in enduro, been in similar situations as this video, there is a level of trust among racers- trusting that the guy in front of me is capable of going fast through tough sections and not to suddenly brake hard. Drivers has to trust each other skillwise in competitive racing.

Always some slow bastard in the passing lane when your in a hurry and Prarie dogging.

[@strongdna]

Wow!!!!!!!

[@StrictlyService905]

Pass in the grass... he was doing it for dale!!! 3 🦅 🍺 🇺🇸

[@kevinh4631]

He's actually staying close to stay out of the dust and have clean air to pass in for visibility. Yes, its even better being behind the wheel of the rig behind KNOWING you have the vehicle power, ability and clean passing room ahead to blow their doors off when you FLY past them. You can see Robby "nerf him" a couple times just a little bit before he passes, thats letting the guy in front know hat your gunna pass or punt them soon. I prefer the passing! Sling shot right on by them and they dont even know your coming till, they are suckin your dust!

[@SoI_Badguy]

@@clamburger72 lmfao that sounds exactly like something Harvick would do

[@toiletpaper5770]

What’s a punt

[@mikeleclair1308]

Big Robby Gordon fan! The man would race anything on wheels with half of mosts budget and kick your ass.Met him in Martinsville at a Nascar race and while getting his autogragh he was calling out a vendor that was selling his merch for not having an agreement to do so.Owner,driver,mechanic and Business man!! And one of the true kings of the desert!!

[@SimplePleasuresMTB]

"Get the fuck off me Gordon" ha ha!! notice how quickly the mountains in the background are shrinking. Awesome footage.

[@jamesstewart7224]

You don't need a speedo.just look how fast the scenery disappears in the distance. Pure talent

[@garyjanssen5388]

Thats just full on the best dirt racing drives I've seen in a long time and trusting whos in front of you. You are one of the best. Hats off to you.

[@Ram-vt3rm]

My heart was pounding! Couldn’t imagine being the driver/ navigator.

[@DanTheMan_75]

Do yourself a favor an search who is his co-pilot…even more impressive, Rob is the man!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@MikeTastic86]

I’m not even driving and I have a smile 👂🏻 to 👂🏻 Amazing footage 👍🏻💪🏻

[@rapidtransit8373]

I love going fast. It is awesome to watch these two dicing back and forth at these speeds. To be that close not know what he is going to run up on is hair raising. Had my heart pounding

[@quartermilejunkie5439]

This shows how smart he is because he has to get close enough to have the dust blow by below him not blocking his vision so he can see to set up the pass.. But he is such a good driver that he slams the brake and avoids hitting the guy. He literally drove over bushes to get around the guy. Much respect for his skills. He RACES EVERYTHING!

[@therickpound]

That chassis set up is exemplary, allowing the mans talent to shine

[@Str8Lthl]

Would be cool to see from Gordon's POV and the communicating from driver and co-driver.

[@tmarsalek36]

The engineering is amazing. They are going 100 mph + and it's smooth AF

[@philolen481]

Robby what an Amazing driver & the Patience to wait for the set-up

Can you imagine being a cop chasing any professional driver? Never catch them

[@StoryOfJames.]

Everything about this clip had me smiling ear to ear!

[@dylanmccallister1888]

Gordon made a mistake which pissed himself off so much he passed the guy.

[@jimstenlund6017]

A lot of times these guys hit the vehicle ahead to let them know to move over, pretty decent to wait like that.

[@BGR_33]

This looks absolutely insane! 😮👍🏾👍🏾

[@Xairi]

the footage so unreal.. looks like video game.. brutal..

[@thegreattreon0177]

Pretty cool seeing desert trucks drafting

[@MrRednosemak]

Hits my feed 5 years later??? 😳 This is awesome

[@joshnavarro391]

It’s cuz he has to stay behind him as close as possible so he won’t get dusted out and still be able to see..

[@cencoast_7.340]

Yeah, we got that

[@tanwera]

Lets appreciate that this is seen through a wide angle lens. The guy is so close that he is able to keep out of the dust and maintain clear visibility.

[@speedspeed121]

I remember around 1994 I was codriving my first race in a class 7 truck. I am like, "holy sht, we are flying." Then I hear a super loud roar and the HUGE horsepower Dick Cepek trophy truck flies by like we were standing still.

[@speedspeed121]

@James Claytor Ya! You remember that truck. To some 20-year-old kid racing in La Rana, those trucks were amazing.

You should search who is the co-pilot…even more impressive!!! 🤘

[@skeetermcswagger0U812]

And then completely going off the path into creosote weeds to make the pass at probably 100 mph... .... that's insane!!!!

[@simonbertioli4696]

It's the same as in enduro riding...narrow lanes...difficult to pass and some don't want you to pass... So you just keep pushing and pushing..they then get out of their comfort zone...normally let you pass normally.....the good ones.. Then back to your pace...of racing... But a good video...nice to see close up..

[@antoniocobb9648]

You listen to the gas and you can tell the guy wasn't holding it to the floor. when Robby Gordon got on his ass he almost never let up off the throttle hahaha just goes to show you how badass Robby Gordon truly is.

[@BT293HG]

Robbie is a damn lunatic for fighting like that to pass

[@sbmcvp4525]

What I notice is when RG is up close, the dirt is blowing by the sides, and not in the windshield. Probably why he was "drafting" and waiting for the time to pass.
