    The fact that he's still emotional about it to this day, man, he loves this sport. I miss him on the track.

    The Kid, Wonderboy, The Rainbow Warrior. You name it. Jeff Gordon is a NASCAR legend and an icon. Even the Intimidator appreciated Gordon for what he did.

      Hey Nathaniel C I pretty much agree with your comments about about Jeff Gordon except that by the 90s and 00s Jeff Gordon was thought of and respected as a very competitive veteran with a winning record that lots of drivers wished they had, had but Jr had become a multi time fan favorite, which he certainly deserves to this day 😊😅😮😂❤😂😂😊❤😊

    Started watching NASCAR in 05, chose Gordon because the paint scheme popped out and the number 24 was my favorite number. Seeing him drive, he was almost always up front. Forever a hero of mine

    i find it so funny how Chase Elliott took over Jeff Gordon’s team and yet everyone identifies Kyle Larson and Jeff Gordon together

    I chauffeured comedian Freddy Lewis to The Coke 600 in 1994. He alleged to have won $13K betting on Jeff Gordon for that race. Naturally, Lewis didn't tip me one dime.

    As I was saying not even Harvick , or Jeff Gordon has won four 4⃣ consecutive races at any one track and they're both considered to be considered along with Jimmy Johnson to be 3 of the best of the greatest 75 Nascar drivers of all time in Nascar 😊😅😂❤😂❤😊❤

    Jeff Gordon Raced In The Cup Series For 21 Years

    • @jeffyoder8105
      @jeffyoder8105 Год назад +1

      Yeah , I agree and that's why I responded to someone else's comment by saying by the 90s and 00s Jeff Gordon was a veteran of more than just a couple of years and was very deserving of the respect that other drivers had for him

    • @AlBeQuirky
      @AlBeQuirky Год назад +2

      22 years covering 23 seasons, not including the few races in 2016. 1993-2015 full-time

    why did they have larson talk in this, sounded like he wanted to just talk about himself.

    • @garyk76
      @garyk76 Год назад +14

      It was because Jeff was Kyle's hero and showing him a kid for California could make it in cup and succeed and is the biggest reason Kyle signed with HMS was because of Jeff

    Hey honeymoonlov I agree pretty much 100% without your comments about Jeff Gordon cause I've been a big time Jeff Gordon fan since his introduction to the world as the whiz kid midget race car driver on the old Thursday night Thunder series before he be the second dirt track ace (after Tony Stewart) who proved they were forces to be reckoned with in Nascar too 😊😅😮😂❤😂😊❤😊❤

    Always a Gordan fan! My favorite next to Cale Yarbrough!!!!He was appreciative of the opportunity to race against the best of the best and in the 90’s that was not easy!! He was considered an outsider and
    scrutinized unmercifully BUT he raced respectfully and MADE IT!! I live a couple miles from N Wilkesboro Speedway and pulling for him at that track was not easy😂😂

    One thing that some forget about this race: Gordon the year before in his first Coke 600 won the pole and finished a strong second
