Dust to Glory, great docu about such

btw I have always thought R. Gordon is one of the most under rated drivers in Cup. His equip is junk, small team (never runs good on the mile and a half/superspeedway stuff) but he'll take his junk to the front on a road course. He was pretty good in Indycars. Obviously he's a great off road driver.

I went through a drivers school (Danny McKeever's) with his sister (who also does Baja stuff)...she was less of an exceptional driver to say the least. I believe she spent most the time in the pits for this, that, and the next thing than she did on track.

those videos are sweet though!

I've liked Robby Gordon ever since I saw him in an old motorcycle video. He was out at Pismo or some other sand dune place in an off road truck. He doubled a big sand dune with the truck the same as the guys on motoX bikes. That earned my respect. He has continued to kick *** in just about every form of racing he has competed in.

Amazing video !! Triple digit speeds through town with people just feet away - that is truly crazy ----- It's a wonder that many of the citizens are not run over --

I don't care if Ricky Bobby was driving that piece. I would not be standing there.
