Las
Vegas – March 5, 2000
Las
Vegas , NV – Robby Gordon showed his speed
early in the weekend at Las Vegas posting a 12th-place qualifying
effort. In the first stint during the race his Ford Taurus went
directly to the back, but a tape change during the first pitstop
changed everything and Gordon roared to the front of the field.
Gordon picked up 25 positions in 40 laps, before taking over the
lead of the race which he held for eight laps until pitting. Rains
halted the finish of the race and Gordon had to settle for a 13th-place
finish.
