@G hrvyck you seem extremely angry...NASCAR didn't ban him, the sport overpriced itself for Robbys liking, its not a coincidence he left around 2012ish. Robby was an owner/driver. Unless nascar outright banned him, they didnt push him out lol. Relax, the main part of the conversation ended 4 months ago. Eat some pizza, take a nap, and play a sudoku or word search or something. It is a good stress reliever. Also that phrase, no idea what it means haha

I met Robby Gordon at a gas station in New Mexico a few years back while he was on tour with his stadium truck series. Super cool, down to Earth guy.

I always rooted for Robby Gordon in the cup series he was such a fun personality to root for and didn’t take anyone’s crap. Thanks for having him on Dale Jr.

Thanks Jr , always liked Robby Gordon a little rough around the edges but a real racer .

Robby is similar to AJ Foyt, a REAL racer, will race anything, anywhere, anytime.

I've met Robby a few times, and he's literally been nothing but nice! A true gentleman, and a true racer. I've always been a fan!

Have always been a fan .. I was with Tim Morton getting ready to race the Baja 1000 and we ended up having dinner with Robby and his team in San Filipe. Super nice guy and a permanent great memory for me !

Arguably one of the GOAT"s in the off road racing world. Also can win in any type of motorsports.

Robbie Gordon can wheel anything he gets in. He aint afraid of nothin.

Growing up with nascar i used to Hate robby( i was just a kid then) i never realized then he was a living legend.

Regarding camera angles...; during the NASCAR break this spring, we watched "classic" races while waiting for NASCAR to return. The first thing that struck me with the old footage was how fast the actual speed of the cars was. I don;t know if the tv cameras were closer, or farther, from the track as they followed the cars, but in the old footage, the sense of speed is REAL. In the current footage, the camera angles are so focused on getting the cars into perfect "focus" that the cars don't actually appear to be moving that fast. Having attended a live race at Charlotte in '07, seeing how FAST the cars lap the track, for my own eyes, was unreal...! Not until I watched some of the older footage this spring did I again get a sense of that speed...!

That’s awesome Robby Gordon has become Uber successful in business a serious mentor. Also I never understood why more racing series don’t cross promote and work together more to increase the fan experience.

He said one thing that was at the root of it all but was only glossed over. WE WERE TAKING THEIR VIEWS. At the time, Supercars were transitioning from a support category that races production based v8 utes against each other, to a new series based on turbo diesel 4x4 production utes, ushered in by Supercars and CAMS. The V8 utes were fun to watch, sounded great, lots of beating and banging. The new utes lost the V8 sound, and the cars were alot slower. Now enter SST, V8s are back, they jump through the air, close racing. Robby had stolen every V8 ute fan, and CAMS were desperate to see him gone. First the wheel debacle (which was followed by a number of wheel losses in the main supercars series that went unpunished). Then the donuts, which while an awesome stunt that fans certainly loved, gave the nanny state all the ammo they needed to hit the nail in the coffin and bury the series. Glad to see them back. Although I wish they'd do more dirt racing in Australia, I saw them at Sydney speedway and at the Sydney street circuit and the dirt track was amazing!

Down Under we love the Stadium Trucks and Robbie and the Crew... Saw him in Adelaide and the show was awesome !!

I was at a tech at a desert race in barstow ca. About 1994 or 95. I was taking pictures looking up under the rear end of robbies trophy truck when some guy knelt down next to me and said " when you get the pictures developed I want a copy of the blueprints " I looked to my left and it was Robby with a ear to ear grin messing with me. Raw talent, he should have done better in nascar but sometimes you need to keep your mouth closed and listen more. Much respect for all he's done in motor sports and business.

I actually liked Robby Gordon being in NASCAR in the Cup series when he drove a Monte Carlo for Felix Sabades ( I may have misspelled his last name. I'm sorry ). He is a racers racer. At that time Robby also drove an Indy car during the Indy 500, then drove in the Coke 600 the same day. Tony Stewart, another racers racer did the same thing. Those were the days in the 90's and early 2000's when you would see guys do that type of stuff and do well.

@Elite Soulfly First off, they've all done something stupid on the track. People need to stop acting like every driver is perfect. They've all spun out on purpose to benefit them too. Secondly, getting upset about a debris caution that did not impact the championship that happened 14 years ago is ridiculous. Third, Dude lives and breathes racing. He's really nice to his fans too. I remember going to Menards as a kid when he was signing autographs. He took forever because he had a conversation with practically everyone that showed up. Guy could have had a hell of a NASCAR career if he wanted to, but he cared more about the freedom to do things his way. And not be stuck in some kind of hostage contract. I respect that

I agree with Robbie with regard to his comments on the V-8 supercars vs. NASCAR racing.

One of the most talented drivers out there he can drive anything, here in Argentina at the Dakar he stole the show, everyone wanted to see him doing those crazy stuff with his Hummer and later with the Gordini, jumping the podium ramp, the donuts, great memories of those days down here.

I remember him when he first hit Indy racing. He was just a kid. God I feel old!

My introduction to Robbie Gordon was the 1994 Michigan 500 (CART PPG Indycar Series). He blew his right front tire going down the front stretch while grabbing a gear at about 225 mph and somehow kept the thing straight with one hand.

This right here is a true wheelman. Put him in any equipment and he can win. Love to watch this badazz wheel a race car/truck.

Got to meet Robby back in 2001 at Rolex 24hrs., Talked with him a while over lunch, REALLY a nice guy and very talented. No nonsense driver that just gets down to business and drives.

I saw these guys race at Texas last year. It was really fun! Robby almost hit a tow truck while coming off a jump, tow driver did a great job of moving out of the way.

IMO, SST is some of the best racing out there! I'd love to see more NASCAR drivers run SST. Greg Biffle did a pretty good job when he drove. What do ya say JR?.....

One of my favorite drivers and all.around good person. Love the super trucks

I agree with Robbie, The V8 SuperCars just looked alot faster on TV, the racing was awesome, they sound better, the camera angles convey it very well.

Another thing in Australia is at that time CAMS (Confederation of Australian Motorsport, now called Motorsport Australia) were promoting their own truck type series called SuperUtes which were Diesel powered vehicles that were slow and boring and SST was putting the SuperUtes to absolute shame. CAMS don't like anyone showing them up and play the politics very harshly.

When I saw the stadium super trucks live I always wanted to race in that Series

One of the best things I've seen is Robbie pulling up to his trailer in a SST no ramps and jumped it on the trailer centered first shot!!

My favorite Robby Gordon moment was when he was celebrating at Montreal

It's a pleasure to listen to someone that calls them like he sees them.

I remember when I was 13-14yrs old and I saw Robby at the Split Rock Resort at Poconos (I was there for the Pocono race), it was when you had the burn injuries (Dale) and John Andretti was your relief driver (R.I.P). Anyway, I was excited to see Robby and said "Wow! You're Robby Gordon!". And you (Robby) just blew right past me replying "Yup." I had to say, that hurt my feelings because I was a fan of yours at the time and I wanted to get a picture with you (Literally whoever drove a Chevy but I was more a Dale Jr fan anyway).

Living legend.

Was at Texas Motor Speedway a few years ago for an Indycar race and Robby’s super trucks raced before the Indycars. The super trucks were way more exciting than the Indycars.😆

There is guys who stand out in racing for the good thing and there are guys who stand out for bad things... Robby Gordon covered both. No surprise he comes from a working class family.

I'd love to see him run Indy again.

Nascar has to be on local channels. Not cable. Not all have the money for cable. Thanks so much. Robbie love you

Robby Gordon’s been my guys since CART. I’ve supported, in my own small way, everything he’s done since.

I think that the Ban from Australia had something to do with his altercation with Marcos Ambrose at Montreal back in 2007.

I'm kinda shocked Tony and Ray didn't want to work with Robby on their SRX series... seems like a similar style business model would fit their startup really well, and Robby would be interested in a trans am style car I would think...

Always good to hear from Mr Gordon, and he got my attention, when he talked about productions, and how a great effort to put forth something really captivating, doesn't translate in the viewer ship expected. Then you put the viewer in the driver's seat, and nothing else matters. Lol That's Me.

Robby Gordon could push a Kroger buggy to a checked flag in supermarket sweep. Then later that day, embarrass everyone at some random gocart race at Family Fun Center in Pine Knot Kentucky for fun. A natural wheel man, the FBI needs to look into all unsolved bank robberies that had a getaway driver. Robby Gordon would chase Vin Diesel's family down, giving Vin a quarter mile headstart.

I’ll never forget the time Robbie got caught red handed throwing out a piece of of roll bar rubber to cause a yellow. But after listening to a few of these guys on the Download how could they not cheat when everybody else is? Ward Burton called it “the car was fully cheated up.” Love these podcasts!

I will agree with Robby, we are over saturated with racing events. I know for the last few years, we had to choose between Nascar and Monster Jam or Supercross in the Atlanta area. Not everyone's budget allows for all racing events.
