Go Team 24!

My dad's a huge NASCAR fan so I know a little bit about the sport of car racing.  Since everyone has to have a favorite driver, I picked my favorite driver when I was 4 or 5 years old.

So, who is my favorite driver?

It's cutie Jeff Gordon!  He drives the #24 Chevrolet for Hendricks Racing in the Nextel/Sprint Cup series of NASCAR.



My dad says I picked him for two reasons:

1. His car used to be painted all the color of the rainbow because his sponsor makes all the colors of car paint.  His crew used to be called the "Rainbow Warriors", believe it or not!  So, I thought the car was pretty.

2. Jeff Gordon is a cutie!  Sorry girls, he's married to a model and they just had their first child.



The NASCAR season is winding down and about to enter into what they call the "Chase", which is sort of like the playoffs in other sports.  Jeff Gordon is leading the points and it looks like he has a great chance to win his 5th NASCAR championship, which would put him only one championship behind my Paw Paw's favorite driver, the late Dale Earnhardt!

I haven't been to actual race yet, but, my dad's always saying he wants to take me.  Maybe we'll go to the race in California next year?

XOXO,

Gracie

PS - Go Jeff Gordon!
