Introduction:
Four-time NASCAR Champion Jeff Gordon has announced that he has opened a driving school designed to provide the most exciting and entertaining experience in the motorsports world. “The NASCAR experience has always been exhilarating for me,” said Gordon, driver of the #24 Dupont Chevrolet. “It has been the most exciting part of my life and I want the fans to be able to experience the thrill of speed the same way I do.”
The school began operations in 2005 at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Charlotte , North Carolina and will expand to multiple NASCAR speedways in 2006. The racing school cars will be authentic cars actually raced by top NASCAR drivers. Many of the cars have been raced to Victory Lane by drivers such as Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and others at the wheel.
Mario Andretti, who opened his Indy-style racing school in 2004, was at Lowe's Motor Speedway for the Jeff Gordon Racing School announcement. “In 2006, fans will be able to drive Indy-style race cars and NASCAR race cars on the same day,” said Andretti. “The Jeff Gordon Racing School and the Mario Andretti Racing School will operate under the same umbrella and will offer the ultimate driving experience. This combined format will provide an unparalleled opportunity for race enthusiasts – the chance to drive the two most popular racing cars in the United States .”
“When you combine the names and reputations of two of the greatest names in motorsports, you know this school will provide a first-class experience for its customers,” stated H.A. “Humpy” Wheeler, President and COO of Speedway Motorsports. “My relationship with Mario goes way back to our Indy Car days while working at Firestone and Jeff has accomplished some incredible things in such a short period of time. I have no doubt this will be a quality venture. We look forward to hosting the Jeff Gordon Racing School at our various Speedway Motorsports-owned facilities.”
Jeff Gordon Racing School was designed to offer the most exhilarating racing school based on the winning experiences of NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon.
