For starters, I’m not really qualified to write anything about the death of Dale Earnhardt. I’ve been involved with the NASCAR community for little over a year, and given that, what do I really I know? Everyday, however, I learn something new about NASCAR. So instead of giving any type of opinion on what happened, I’m simply going to relay my brief exposure to “The Intimidator.” He’s a figure like I’ve never seen, and while I knew he was an icon of the sport, I had no idea just how big of an icon he really was.

The Twin 125’s started innocently enough for Robby Gordon from the 10th position. He played a patient game early, sticking with the high line and resisting the urge to step out and make moves. At that point the high line and low line hadn’t really played themselves out. But as the race progressed past the halfway point, Gordon showed his colors and let the field know that his Kodak Chevy was a contender. He ran as high as 3rd with only ten laps to go following a fantastic charge to the front after a restart.

Seven hours and some change to Daytona by car. That’s what many of the Winston Cup folks based in Charlotte were faced with on Wednesday.

NASCAR media day was Thursday. All Winston Cup drivers were obligated to attend and face the cameras with their new uniforms, and for some like Robby, their new teams. And while most probably left early in the day Wednesday, Robby Gordon was running a little late. As a result, so were his passengers. Not to worry though, this shouldn’t be a surprise and it surely wasn’t to me. But it wasn’t a big deal either, we knew it was going to be a midnight run regardless – what’s another hour or two?

When Robby Gordon joined Morgan-McClure Motorsports last year on a chilly day in November at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, it was a step towards success for both driver and team. In return for the five-year commitment Kodak and Morgan-McClure have given the 32-year old California native, Gordon brings with him a relentless desire to stand on the gas, and most importantly, win races.
