Jeff Gordon was one of the three Americans that went to the "Race Of Champions" in Europe last weekend. I am posting this video cause it shows a NASCAR guy getting to ride along with a pro rally driver. I think he is pretty impressed, listen to him after the crash. Funny sh*t! http://www.raceofchampions.com/videos/team-usa-triumph/

Tanner Faust did pretty good at ROC but too bad Leob is way to good of a driver for everyone. If wrc tanks soon I think hes going to be a force to be reckoned with in F1 if he goes with that |

The Americans finished quite well in the event believe it or not. Not sure who the third U.S. team member was, I bet Google knows. I guess I have poked fun of Gordon to my buddies allot in the past. Probably because he has won so damn much in the past. He has an extensive dirt background I do believe. His ex-wife is smokin hot and his new girlfriend is just as hot btw.
I expect NASCAR bashing due to what forums I am posting in. I personally enjoy any kind of racing I can get my hands on. Saying NASCAR drivers are less than Rally drivers is kind of funny. It's like saying Tiger Woods is a sh*tty athlete compared to Michel Jordon because he doesn't run as much. It's a skill and something they enjoy doing. Not to mention they make crazy money doing it. |

There is more to NASCAR than most people realize . All they see is a car turning left for 4 hours.
I'll give Rally drivers their just dues but when is the last time they drove a 4 or 500 mile race? NASCAR does it every weekend plus a couple road courses. Funny how people think NASCAR is so easy but how many drivers from other disciplines of racing actually make it in NASCAR? Very few. |
