Richmond May 6, 2000

Richmond, VA – Robby Gordon’s evening at Richmond was similar to a lot of other drivers as many had trouble with the right front overheating and cutting the tire. 100 laps in Gordon’s Flintstones Ford lost the right front and in a shower of sparks slammed into the turn three wall bending the clip and taking Gordon out of action for over 100 laps. When he returned the car was competitive in lap times even though down in the lap chart. Two laps form the end Gordon again lost the right front tire. He limped back to the garage with the car on fire finishing 37th.

Starting position – 36th

Finishing position – 37th

Laps – 282/400
