Ask him why he chooses not to participate/fund an open wheel team, like Kasey and Tony do. And Bobby Labonte is involved with late models, as is Clint Bowyer. He can spend his money as he see fit, but it'd be nice to see him support the sport that got him to where he is......

...was wondering if Tony ,Kasey,Bobby Labonte,Clint Boyer have Built any Children's Hospitals lately.....i think the answer is no and YES Jeff has....he chooses to spend his money on more important things...i know we ALL love racing but it is not everything...

I think it is fine for Jeff to give money to childrens hospitals and not have a sprint car team ,out there,with the Outlaws or USAC,if he was to put a team out there maybe he should have an umbrella concession trailer for the Outlaws seeing hows they get to follow the clouds,anyway he makes his money and he spends it as he sees fit and he doesn't tell us how to spend ours unless it is to buy a Chevy and I'm sure he has made some very wise investments for his sunset years,I would not be surprised to see Hendrick become Gordon motorsports someday,just the racing teams not all those dealerships.

Ask him if he remembers flipping into the parking lot at Millstream while running second to Jack Hewitt when he first came to Ohio driving the family car from Cal. #16? He flipped between the pit shack and the grader and ended up on his wheels without hitting any cars in the parking lot... Anybody else out there remember that?
|
Yes brenteri,I remember that. Throttle stuck in turns 3&4 drove the car off 4 wide open. It was before Earl had put the wall around the track. Had a little more respect for the 13 year old after that.

"Just wish he'd stop spending money on children's hospitals and spend it on race teams."
That's just about the most disgusting thing I've ever heard.
|
This is sarcasm
Meaning " Jeff is too busy helping kids get fed, nurtured, and get a decent chance."
It was ,I think, actually from a Gordon fan.

Be fair, they've all been giving a lot more than most of us do, including me.
