April 11 – – For the second consecutive race, Jeff Gordon had victory within his sights while lining up with the lead on a final green/white/checkered flag restart.  Unfortunately for Gordon, the ending at Phoenix International Raceway mirrored the disappointment of Martinsville Speedway.  However, this time around, there was no contact from behind. Rather, it was the driver’s error that opened the door for Ryan Newman to take the lead (and the victory) away with 2 laps to go.  Nevertheless, Gordon posted a runner-up finish and moved to 5th in the series points standings.

Gordon started 10th and moved around Carl Edwards on the opening lap to take a spot.  On lap 2, he passed Martin Truex and Marcos Ambrose to take 7th place.  Ten laps later he took over 6th from Dale Earnhardt Jr.  The first caution waved on lap 15 after Kurt Busch got loose entering turn one and took out Kasey Kahne on the outside.  Pit stops ensued with Gordon losing a spot and exiting in 7th place.   A lap after the restart, Jamie McMurray spun in turn three off the front bumper of Clint Bowyer.  Gordon restarted in 8th on lap 30 on the outside of Matt Kenseth.  He moved to 6th on lap 31 before AJ Allmendinger took a position.  On lap 39, Jimmie Johnson went by sending Gordon back to 8th before he regrouped and took 7th from Ryan Newman.  The third caution came on lap 56 after Brian Vickers wrecked in turn three. Pit stops followed with Gordon exiting in 6th place.

When racing resumed, Gordon bided his time in 7th place behind Sam Hornish and AJ Allmendinger.  On lap 82, Gordon moved to the outside of Allmendinger and raced side by side with Dr. Lynne’s husband for a lap before taking 6th place.  Kenseth passed Gordon on lap 88 to take over 6th and send Gordon back to the 7th position.  He moved back into 6th on lap 110 after getting around Hornish.  On lap 133, Gordon came to pit road for a green flag pit stop just before Kurt Busch cut a tire.   The caution waved three laps later as the pit sequence fully cycled through.  Gordon fell to 8th due to the tight conditions on pit road and coming in slightly sideways to his stall.  He gained two spots on the restart and closed in on Kenseth for 5th on lap 155.  However, Gordon’s car tightened up and Kyle Busch took a spot on lap 161.  He moved into the top-5 on lap 188 after getting around Joey Logano.  A caution for Dave Blaney’s blown engine brought the lead lap cars to pit road.  Gordon lost six spots and restarted in 11th.  He dropped to 12th before rallying back into the top-10 with 165 laps to go.

With 107 to go, Gordon took 8th from Logano, and then passed Kenseth for 7th with 94 to go.  As the green flag run continued, he tracked down and passed Kevin Harvick for 6th.   A caution flag brought the leaders to pit road with 59 laps to go.  Gordon gained two positions and departed in 4th place.  On the restart, Gordon used the outside line to move up to 3rd but ran distantly behind Kyle Busch and Jimmie Johnson for the race lead.  As the laps wound down, he made some headway on catching Johnson for 2nd.  With four laps to go, Scott Riggs hit the wall to bring out the caution and set up a green/white/checkered finish.  The leaders came to pit road with Gordon opting for a two-tire change and departed pit road with the race lead.  On the restart, Newman powered on the inside past Gordon for the race lead after the leader spun the tires.

March 29 – – If nothing else, Jeff Gordon is Mr. Consistency at Martinsville Speedway.  Gordon posted a 3rd place finish in the rain-delayed Goody’s 500 for his 11th straight top-five and 15th straight top-ten finish at the 1/2-mile track.  However, the ending of the Goody’s 500 was a disappointment as Gordon lost the race lead on a final green/white/checkered restart after Matt Kenseth drilled him from behind.  Gordon regrouped and knocked Kenseth up the track in turn three, but not before Denny Hamlin took the race lead and the victory.  “I didn’t get a great restart,” Gordon said.  “I saw (Kenseth) behind me.  He drove in the back of me so hard.  I made sure he wasn’t going to win the race after that.”

Gordon started 11th and gained five spots in the opening 10 laps.  He passed Jimmie Johnson and lap 25 to move into 6th, and entered the top-5 on lap 30.  He gained a spot during a pit stop sequence on lap 40, and quickly moved into the runner-up spot on lap 49.  Gordon tracked down and passed Jeff Burton for the race lead on lap 59.  He held the lead until Kurt Busch took the top spot on lap 140.  He dropped two spots on a pit stop sequence on lap 164 and slipped further back by lap 190 while battling handling issues in the corner.  However, the car eventually came to him and he moved back into the top-10 on lap 193.  Gordon’s forward charge continued as he took 7th from Dale Earnhardt Jr on lap 204.  At the halfway point Gordon was running in 6th.  He remained there until lap 303 when Joey Logano took the position.  His forward charge commenced on lap 314 after a pit stop.  He passed Clint Bowyer and Jimmie Johnson to re-enter the top-five, and then took 4th from Kyle Busch on lap 328.

Gordon struggled on restarts for most of the race and following a caution flag on lap 364, he dropped to 7th.  He regouped to take 6th on lap 390 before another caution on lap 421.  Pit stops followed and Gordon exited in 9th place.  With 70 laps to go, he moved into 7th place, and then took 6th from Martin Truex Jr.  He passed Matt Kenseth for 5th with 50 to go, and passed Clint Bowyer for 4th with 18 to go.  With 9 laps to go, Jeff Burton cut a tire and hit the wall, which allowed Gordon to move up to 3rd place.  Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch both elected to come to pit road under caution, which gave Gordon the race lead.  On the restart, he pulled away from Ryan Newman and looked to be on the way to his 83rd career victory.  However, Kyle Busch’s spin in turn four with 2 laps to go brought the caution flag.  Gordon was angered by the timing of the flag as he was less than 90 feet from taking the white flag — which would have automatically frozen the field and ended the event.

On the green/white/checkered restart, Kenseth slammed the rear of Gordon’s car and knocked him up the track in turn 1.  He raced side-by-side with Kenseth on the backstretch and clipped the rear of Kenseth’s Ford to send him up the track and make sure the Wisconsinite did not visit victory lane.  Hamlin dove low to take the race lead and the victory with his teammate Joey Logano in tow.  Gordon regrouped to hold off Ryan Newman to finish 3rd.  The finish allowed Gordon to move up to 7th in the series points standings.

Bristol Food City 500 Race Audio

by 1 Comment

March 22 – – Jeff Gordon’s day at Bristol Motor Speedway was an up and down affair characterized by handling issues in the mid-stages and a wreck with 150 laps to go.  Gordon’s unsatisfying 14th place finish leaves him 11th in points for the second straight week.  Jimmie Johnson took the lead from Tony Stewart with 7 laps to go and won his 50th career race.

Gordon qualified 5th, but started 3rd after Dave Blaney dropped to the rear of the field.  He settled into 4th after Jimmie Johnson used the high line to take the spot and eventually the race lead.  Gordon used the upper groove to take 3rd from polesitter Joey Logano on lap 8.  The first caution waved on lap 41 after Blaney stopped on the track.  The field came to pit road with Gordon exiting in 4th place.  He restarted in 6th after David Stremme and Brad Keselowski stayed out.  Gordon made quick work of Stremme on the outside line and got around Kurt Busch.  He took 2nd place from Keselowski on lap 49 and closed in on Johnson for the race lead.  The next caution waved for Clint Bowyer’s engine problem on lap 57.  Gordon held off Kurt Busch on the restart, but eventually ceded the runner-up spot on lap 81.  He fell to 6th by lap 115 while battling a tight handling condition.  A caution for Denny Hamlin’s wall contact on lap 117 brought the leaders to pit road.   Gordon departed in 5th place after gaining a spot.

Light rain enveloped the track on lap 125, which brought another caution period.  After nearly 20 minutes circling at reduced speed, the green flag waved.  Gordon dropped to 6th after Mark Martin passed on lap 150.  Keselowski went around Gordon on lap 164, and Jamie McMurray passed four laps later.  Gordon slipped to 10th on lap 170 after Martin Truex and Marcos Ambrose went by.  He fell out of the top-10 on lap 175 when Paul Menard moved around the DuPont Chevrolet.  The slide through the field continued as Gordon ran 17th on lap 195.   Gordon was back in 21st position when Kasey Kahne brought out a much needed caution on lap 205.  On the restart, Gordon moved from 21st to 17th by lap 220, and advanced to 14th on lap 230.  At the halfway point, Gordon had moved up to 12th as the tight handling condition he experienced earlier seems much improved.  Following a caution flag sequence for Kyle Busch’s cut tire, Gordon gained two positions on pit road.  With 200 laps to go, Gordon was running 9th behind Tony Stewart.  A caution for Regan Smith’s wall contact resulted in a caution flag.  Gordon left pit road in 10th place on lap 324.

On lap 341, Mark Martin slammed the wall off turn two after contact with Greg Biffle.  Martin then brought his car back into race traffic and made contact with the front of Gordon’s car, who was slammed in the rear by Marcos Ambrose.  Gordon elected to stay on the track running 11th due to rain in the area.  When the skies lightened, Gordon came to pit road for tires with 143 laps to go.  He restarted in 24th place before a caution flag for rain.  While the lead lap cars pitted, Gordon stayed on the track and moved to 2nd place.  The green flag waved with 90 to go and Gordon was unable to hold the inside line.  He dropped to 4th within a lap of the restart as Kurt Busch and Jimmie Johnson went by.  Less than 25 laps later, he slipped back to 10th place.  Gordon dropped out of the top-10 when Kyle Busch passed with to go.   He was running 14th when the caution waved for debris with 17 laps to go. He exited pit road in 16th for the final run to the finish.  Gordon moved up 2 spots to finish 14th.  At the front of the field, Johnson restarted 6th and moved to the lead around Tony Stewart with 7 laps to go.  Johnson pulled away to win his 50th career race and first ever at Bristol.

Atlanta In Car Audio

March 8 – – Kurt Busch captured the spring race at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the second straight year.  Busch made a daring move on the penultimate restart to take the lead.  The race was not without controversy as Carl Edwards was parked by NASCAR after retaliating against Brad Keselowski for a bump early in the event.  Keselowski’s car flipped over on the frontstretch and pancaked the outside wall with the roof.

Jeff Gordon’s day was an exercise in frustration. Gordon started 5th and dropped a position at the outset to Kasey Kahne.  Robby Gordon crashed to bring out the first caution on lap 4.  He took a position from Mark Martin, and then took 4th from Dale Earnhardt Jr on lap 15.  The second caution came on lap 35 for David Ragan’s cut tire and subsequent contact with the wall.  The leaders came to pit road with Gordon exiting in 5th place.  On the restart, Carl Edwards and Joey Logano hit the turn two wall after Brad Keselowski clipped Edwards at the bottom of the track.  Gordon moved up to 3rd on lap 65, before Kurt Busch took the spot on lap 67.  A debris caution on lap 77 brought the lead lap cars to pit road.  Gordon departed pit road in 3rd place after a sub-15 second stop.  On the restart, Gordon slipped back to 5th before rallying to take 4th on lap 89.  He ran in 3rd on lap 100, but dropped the spot to Kahne on lap 109.  Mark Martin’s spin on lap 115 brought the caution and the leaders to pit road.  Gordon restarted in 8th and moved to 5th by lap 125.  However, he dropped to 7th as Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson passed in the next four laps.  By lap 142, he was down to the 12th spot after struggling with loose handling.

Gordon pitted for tires and losing more positions.  He received a penalty for speeding on pit road, thus necessitating a pass-thru. Joey Logano’s cut tire on lap 160 brought out the caution and trapped Gordon two laps down.  He made up a lap by not pitting under the caution flag.  Gordon worked his way to 29th — the first car one lap down by lap 185.  Trouble struck Gordon on lap 203 when he slowed dramatically in turn one and came to pit road for a tire issue.  He ran the balance of the event a lap down before a wreck on the first green/white/checkered lap allowed him to get back on the lead lap.  Gordon lined up 19th for the second attempt at a green/white/checkered finish.  He gained one spot and finished the event in 18th.  Gordon moved into a tie for 11th in the series points standings.

The NASCAR series takes a week off before returning to the track at Bristol Motor Speedway on March 21.  Although Gordon has started the season with three finishes of 18th or worse in the first 4 races, they’ve run much better than the results indicate.  When you knock on the door long enough, eventually it opens… eventually.

February 28 – – Jeff Gordon led 218 of the 267 laps of the Shelby American at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but a late two-tire change cost him as Jimmie Johnson tracked him down and passed with 17 laps to go. Johnson claimed his second consecutive win.

Gordon started on the inside of the front row due to polesitter Kurt Busch opting for the outside. Gordon passed Busch for the lead exiting turn four and picked up the 5-point bonus for leading a lap. The first caution waved on lap 2 for an incident involving Kevin Conway. Gordon chose the outside line for the restart on lap 6 and pulled away from Busch. His lead ballooned to nearly 3 seconds on lap 25, and 7 seconds on lap 40. A caution for Mike Bliss’ crash on lap 46 erased Gordon’s lead and brought the lead lap cars to pit road. Gordon held onto the lead through the round of pit stops.

Gordon opted for the outside on the restart and dropped to 2nd before a track issue forced a caution within one lap. He started on the outside of Greg Biffle on lap 57 and assumed the lead. He led until a caution on lap 85 for Sam Hornish’s spin. Gordon lost two spots on pit road and restarted in 3rd on lap 90. Shortly after the restart, Juan Pablo Montoya and Jamie McMurray crashed in turn three as Gordon moved to the runner-up position. On the restart, Gordon made a bid for the lead on the outside of Matt Kenseth and re-assumed the top spot on lap 100. Another track issue brought the caution out and the leaders to pit road. Gordon blundered by overshooting his stall and had to back-up on a fuel only stop. He exited pit road in the 3rd position. However, Gordon redeemed himself on the restart by regaining the lead on lap 114. After clinching the bonus for leading the most laps, Gordon came to pit road for a green flag stop with 106 laps to go and cycled through the sequence as the leader.

Gordon remained in the lead and came to pits for a green flag stops with 54 laps to go. Gordon’s lead was erased with 36 laps to go when Kevin Conway hit the turn two wall. The leaders came to pit road and Gordon opted for two tires. He departed with the lead, but was tracked down and passed by Jimmie Johnson with 17 laps to go. Kevin Harvick passed with 4 laps to go to put Gordon back in 3rd. Johnson pulled away to win his second straight race and 49th of his career. Gordon finished 3rd and moved up to 13th in the points standings — a gain of 9 positions. “Had more guys taken two tires, I think we could have got them,” Gordon said. “That’s what makes leading so tough sometimes. We fought them off as long as we could. We were awesome all day, the pit stops were awesome. I know Steve Letarte is beating himself up over the two-tires, but if some other guys took two…”

California In Car Audio

February 22 – – The In-N-Out fast food chain is one of the most popular stops for the NASCAR teams on visits to Southern California.  Unfortunately for Jeff Gordon, In-N-Out described his engine in the last 75 laps of the Auto Club 500 in Fontana, California.   Gordon was running 4th when his engine began missing.   He wound up finishing 20th in a race won by his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jimmie Johnson.

Gordon started 28th and worked his way into the top-20 within four laps.  He steadily worked through traffic and ran 16th on lap 11.  Gordon took 12th from Jamie McMurray on lap 21, and entered the top-10 on lap 30 with a pass on Mark Martin.  Two laps later he climbed to 8th.  Gordon came to pit road on lap 39 for a green flag stop.  When stops cycled through, Gordon ran 6th on lap 44, but slipped to 8th just three laps later while battling a loose condition.  A debris caution on lap 59 brought the field to pit road.  Gordon opted for four tires and departed in 5th place.

Gordon dropped back to 10th on the restart after getting squeezed on the inside line.  After the field became strung out he regrouped and took 8th from Greg Biffle on lap 65.   However, a back and forth battle with Biffle moved Gordon up the track and back to 10th.  Gordon came back and passed Biffle for 9th on lap 68, before Biffle returned the favor one lap later.  Gordon patiently moved around traffic and ran 7th on lap 80.  He used the high line in the corner to take 6th from Juan Pablo Montoya on lap 86.  Kasey Kahne’s spin on lap 93 brought the caution and the leaders came to pit road.  Gordon exited pit road in 4th place, but once again lost spots on the inside line and ran 11th at lap 100.  At the halfway point, Gordon ran in 9th place – distantly behind leaders Kevin Harvick and Jimmie Johnson.

A caution for Montoya’s engine brought the caution and the field to pit road on lap 139.  However, Gordon stayed on the track and collected a 5 point bonus for leading.  On the restart, Gordon chose the outside line and maintained the top spot until Ryan Newman blew an engine on lap 147.  He lost the lead on the restart as Jeff Burton and Kyle Busch went by on lap 154.  With 90 laps to go, Johnson went around Gordon to take 3rd place.  Gordon battled back and took 3rd from Johnson with 88 to go.   Trouble began with 75 laps to go when Gordon radioed about an engine problem.  He slowed dramatically and came to pit road with 72 laps go with the oil temperature rising.   The caution waved for rain with 70 to go and Gordon moved up to 4th due to drivers coming to pit road for fuel.   The field ran under caution for nearly 20 minutes before the green flag waved with 50 laps to go.

The engine once again produced problems and Gordon faded back in traffic until the engine picked up again.  With 35 laps to go, Gordon dropped back to 21st position as the engine was down a cylinder.  One lap later, Gordon came to pit road for tires.   Crew chief Steve Letarte speculated it was likely a spark plug problem with the car.   Gordon restarted in 25th place with 20 to go.  He moved around slower cars and up to 18th with 11 laps to go, before dropping two spots on lap 241.  Gordon finished the event in 20th.  The last time Gordon started a season with two sub-15th place finishes was 1996.
