Now with all that out of the way.....Let's make some laps!
Gordon Returns to Dodge, Moving Forward with SPEED Energy Robby Gordon announced today that he will drive a Dodge when he competes in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series in 2011.
Gordon will return in a Dodge for the first time since 2008 after fielding Toyotas for the past two seasons. He joins Penske Racing as the only factory Dodge Cup teams and will utilize Penske engines in his cars.
"I'm excited about the opportunity," Gordon said. "At RGM we haven't had a factory program for two years. We kind of rode it out with Toyota, but it wasn't a factory program.
"I like the things that Dodge has been doing to build brand awareness. They have an impressive factory and facility, and their product line is top notch. I've really enjoyed putting this deal together with Ralph Gilles and Bryan Viger; they are a fun, youthful, forward-thinking group."
Gordon plans to run 18 NASCAR events with his SPEED Energy drink as the sponsor. He decided to do his own program after complications from his previous relationships with BAM Racing and sponsor ExtenZe.
"Last year I didn't anticipate of getting jacked out of about 6 million bucks," Gordon said. "All of my sponsors did not live up to what they said they were going to do. BAM, I have nothing nice to say about them. The guys from ExtenZe I can't believe they are even on the race track this weekend."
