Ever wondered what it would be like to see Jeff Gordon run on dirt?

Question

To see Ray Evernham get behind the wheel of a race car?
To have Juan Pablo Montoya and Ryan Newman settle their differences - without running for points, in
cars their respective teams don't have to repair?

The Nextel Prelude to the Dream at Eldora Speedway, organized by track owner Tony Stewart, is set to roll tonight with over two dozen famous Nextel Cup stars trying their hands on the tricky dirt oval. Located in tiny Rossburg,
Ohio, about an hour north of Dayton, the half-mile track banked 24 degrees in the turns will play host to 2,300-lb cars running over 800 horsepower. And behind the wheel? Names like Kasey Kahne, Montoya, Gordon, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, and so much more. The list also includes drag racing
superstars Cruz Pedragon and Ron Capps, trading straight-line racing for turning left as they compete against the NASCAR faithful.

Answer 1

I have seen sprint car races with him in it when he was 17.But I think it will be cool to see him do it again.It's all for a great charity,The Victory Junction Gang !!!!

Answer 2

Hey is it your birthday Shawn (if so have a great one)? I thought I saw that david was giving you a little grief for your pre season predictions earlier. Anyway, shame on you for doubting that Jimmie would be right back where he left off last year. Keep the faith sister! If it is your b-day and your watching the Eldora race I hope you have a great time tonight. Look for Kenny Schrader to do good, he's had a little extra time to practice on the dirt lately with Bill Elliot taking over in the 21 car for awhile. Too bad Jimmie had a previous commitment, it would be fun to see him there getting dirty!

Answer 3

Keselowski could be my first wager yet that relies upon on how plenty longer Jeff Gordon makes a decision to race. i do no longer see Keselowski sitting interior the national sequence too long. i'm confident he might get slightly under pressure. If the national sequence is going to the recent COT chassis then Dale Jr would pass Jr Motorsports to the Cup point and place Brad in a cup motor vehicle.If that happens then the door must be open for some unknown to take the 24 motor vehicle over. that ought to ensue in 2010 except the economic device does not advance and NASCAR makes a decision it incredibly is going to cost too plenty to alter to the COT chassis interior the national sequence. i think of there are too many variables to even make a wager as to who might certainly take over the 24 motor vehicle could Jeff retire. Too many variables.

Answer 4

I have seen Jeff and Tony run on dirt, have always thought it would be interesting to see them race each other in a challenge race in Sprints. Can't say I have much of an opinion about the rest of your question.

Answer 5

Heyyell I was around when NASCAR did run on dirt.They need to do this again.It is a sight to behold to see a full field (43) of cars take the green and the dirt flies.

Answer 6

No, But I'm wondering why you deleted your previous question. Guess you didn't like the answers you were getting about your top 12 picks for the winners in this years chase. You should have let others been entitled to their opinions.

Answer 7

Ha she run dirt in the past? I know he ran gokarts as a kid. I'd love to see the Cup drivers do a dirt track at least one race out of the season :^)

Answer 8
