Happy Birthday, Robby Gordon (January 2, 2019)

Robby Gordon celebrates his 50th birthday today. Happy birthday Robby!

The California-born driver has had quite the career, both from a driving and management standpoint. Gordon earned class victories in America’s twice-around-the-clock Rolex 24 At Daytona; bested open-wheel fields in the mid and late 1990s (and came within a lap of winning the Indianapolis 500); triumphed during a long stock car career (where he raced and co-owned a team); and still shines in a series he founded (super trucks). Needless to say, Gordon has competed in a number of different racing disciplines and been successful in all of them.

Here’s a quick (albeit incomplete) look at Gordon’s driving career.
