A Personal Note from Robby Gordon (Press Release)

While I am in Ensenada for today’s Baja 500, the No. 7 team was in Pocono preparing for this weekend’s Cup race. I want to personally thank Ted Musgrave for his help yesterday practicing and attempting to qualify our Cup car as well as our team members for their hard work. Despite missing the race, Ted and team made a valiant effort to get the No. 7 into the race.

I believe that all successful companies go through times like this – they have highs and lows. I remember Penske Racing missing the Indy 500 with three cars in 1995 and Paul Tracy just last month. We will recover from this just like Penske did, and we will be stronger because of it.

While I am disappointed that we will not participate in tomorrow’s race at Pocono Raceway, I want to thank our employees for their hard work and our sponsors for their continued support. What remains through all of this is Robby Gordon Motorsports’ commitment to the success of our diversified racing programs.

Good to see Robby send this press release out. He didnt have to take a car to Pocono, since he was running it out of pocket.

Anyways, sorry , this note from Robby was supposed to be up this morning, but i was at a baseball game. Press release link here.
