I became a big Robby fan back in the Champ (the best) Car days. I was at the race in Toronto and I had my official white autograph coveralls on. (I personally sew race badges on the coveralls and get drivers autographs all over them) I was standing by Robby Gordons hauler waiting for him for an autograph. He rolled up on his scooter with a box of ice cream bars in his arm. He stopped when I asked him for an autograph, and politely said he would be back after he gave the treat to his team. I thought yea right, heard that one before! Well sure enough a couple of minutes later out he comes, big smile on his face and signed my coveralls. I have met Robby several times since and he has always had time for a chat. Got his autograph on my ticket stub in 2003 at Watkins Glen where I predicted he would win, and he did! It was a mud bog and he showed up at our camp site in a little Scion. Robby is a RACER through and through and just a down to earth all around nice guy who always makes time for race fans!!!!!
