Track position is so important. I'd say Tony (Stewart), too. He's the kind of guy that gets it. He realizes if you're faster, he knows he's got to work on his car and find something to make him better. It's not about fighting – unless we're in the closing laps of the race, of course. If you're halfway through the race and you run Tony down, he's going to work with you.

This comment blew me away.

Great link Greg!

SBN: What's your personal code of conduct on the track?
JG: I try to race guys the way they race me. Like me and Martin Truex always used to get along, and I ran into him at Sonoma – totally my fault – and he's raced me differently ever since. I don't blame him. I don't think he's a big fan of mine. And that's fine; I deserve that because I made a mistake that sticks with him. So he and I, we now race one another really hard. And that's just the way it is.
But other than those instances where you had a run-in with a guy that sparked something, however a guy races me is how I race him. In that case, I seem to have a pretty good memory of those things – and a real good memory of when it hasn't gone well for me. (Laughs)

Good interview

Good interview from a great and seasoned driver. I've enjoyed watching Jeff Gordon evolve over the years. Great driver.

Only when it's convenient.

He does that same 12 questions article each and every week. It's always a good article IMO. I like to read what these guys have to say.

As far as Gluck goes..... While I sure don't agree with everything he writes I do like reading what he has to say. I've talked to him several times over the recent years at his 'Tweetups' at the track. It's a great service that he provides to the race fans out there. I've posted about those several times. I'll be there again next weekend @ Bristol as long as there is one that weekend.
