Gordon was on the djr dl talking about the racing at restrictor plates, all the Hendrick and dei cars had the money to win, but Gordon and Jr, they knew how to use those cars. I think the greatest finish was when Gordon made that last lap pass in the cot. Pulling Infront of stewart at the very final second he had to do that. It's still an unbelievable move. Gordon was the man.

Jeff Gordon is the Nascar GOAT!! When he announced his retirement it was very shocking and sad. I had hoped he would at least race at the restrictor plate race tracks, Daytona and Talladega, and the, .5mi tracks Bristol Tn and Martinsville Va. I do appreciate that he is in the booth for half the season, listening to his commentary...we are lucky to still be able to enjoy his personality, and be able to occasionally see his stats. I miss that #24 Drive to End Hunger, AARP, Axalta, Chevy SS, there will never be another driver that matches Jeff Gordon in driving skills, personability with fans, and aall the great things he's done for charities within the sport and outside racing. A fan forever of Jeff Gordon and that beautiful #24!

That's a great feat no doubt, but you can open up a gap at New Hampshire and if you have long runs and everyone one pits when you pit then it's possible to so what he did. At a plate track though where the whole field is bunched up the whole race and there are more passes for the lead than any other tracks, Gordon did a awesome job. Again though Truex and Burtons performances are jus as great too.

Yes, those two. That one at Martinsville in 2012 was rough. It should've been Jeff to get the 200th win. The one at Richmond in 2010 wasn't a GWC but the restart killed Jeff's chances. I think he finished 2nd like 9 times in 2010. If he could've had a little luck there would've been some wins there. At Chicago he finished 2nd to David Reutimann. I think 2013 will be better for Jeff Gordon and Team#24.
