Robby Gordon will run the #07 Mapei/Menards Toyota in the Nationwide series this weekend at Montreal. Robby will have to qualify in on speed, but they do use rain tires in case it gets wet. They also use the 'timed' group qualifying session, so Robby will be able to run a 'safe' lap before giving it a go on his latter laps. This will be a full race effort. Clear your weekend schedule!
Robby should put a decal on his Nationwide car to show support for the Chile 33. It would be a great PR move for his Dakar program. It wouldn't hurt at all to have an entire nation on your side in January. I know NASCAR has to approve any signage on the exterior, but it would be a good PR move on their part for their diversity program. Maybe other teams would run it as well.If not outside I'm sure there will be plenty of in car shots of Robby. What do you think?
