Pretty boy gordon turned his back on his roots of sprint car racing. He said its not a money making deal. Hes a trader.

I take it you are losing money with everything you are involved in and dont mind. I cant blame him. He is far from the only guy to move on and not come back. Hell you should be pissed at AJ and Mario for not having sprint car teams running in USAC today. Let it go buddy. Dont be a hater you had your chance 20 years ago to watch him. I too wish he would have a team but it is his money and his choice.

Aj has owned sprint car and silver crown teams and even drove them after winning indy. Get your facts straight buddy!

It would be nice to see him in a sprintcar again and own a team. Cant condemn a guy for not. What alot of people dont figure in is the pressure of keeping your team gainfully employed. Once you get into a top racing series theres alot of people depending on you for they're paychecks. One wonders how many people rely on him or someone like Stewart , to keep them in a job. You get in Nascar for one or more of these reasons: fame, fortune or running in the top series. If he was in it for fun he would have stuck with sprintcars in California.

And probably the same reason Jeff doesnt.

Just cuz Smoke and Kahne own sprint cars dont mean they all need to.

Theres plenty of things he could do to help. He wont even show up to a race. And hes to scared to get behind the wheel.

You win you are right. He probably is scared. Raced a sprint car at 13, won Daytona three times, brickyard 4 times and has 80 some sprint cup series wins running scared. Give me a break. Dont be a hater! Like I said earlier I wish he was involved but not going to hate him because he isnt.

Well lets see--maybe when he has time off, he wants to be with his sexy, super model wife and his kid?
