Ironic, huh? Yes, Sr. died doing what he loved at the track he had the most wins. I'd bet he would prefer to go out in a blaze than to just fade away.

I also have seen much worse wrecks where the driver walked away. It really was a "freak" accident. I felt so bad for Sterling. He was receiving death threats after crashing Sr. Ridiculous!

I still say blocking is ok for the win.

used to be they paid extra bucks to be the leader at mid race. Gordon usually found a way to collect that check even when his car wasn't so good that week.

Gordon's not my favorite racer, but I'd have to say he's the one I respect (and fear) the most 'cause he always finds a way to finish better than he should have.

yes, annoying!

Yup. Forgot all about that "leading at halfway bonus", and how Gordon would manage to take it.

To say that I'm not a fan of Gordon is an understatement. However, as you said, the fact that he always finds a way to finish better than he should have can be attributed to his driving talent.
Oh, my GOD! Did I just say that? Shoot me NOW!
