    Thanks for the link AFF, I never would have thought you're going to post on the NASCAR section of the forum. Excellent result for Robby, he's charging hard for stage wins now that he's out of contention for a top 5 overall. I saw him yesterday bumping a frightened innocent driver (who promptly hit the brakes) in the purest Robby style: 'I you wanna live, move out of my way!'

    He made good progress yesterday to have a better starting position today and eventually to win the stage. WTG Robby!

    Point taken Mihai but tell you truth, I broke the ice already last year. These rednecks welcomed me with open arms

    I'm a Robby fan from head to toe

    After 7th. stage Gordon is 16th. but only minute and a half from 14th. position. The route is still long and anything can happen like Carlos Sainz just noticed.

    after stage 8 he is in a much better position, he finished 8th & getting in the top 10 is really impressive,...........he is in 10th position now!
    if he keeps that up he could get in the top 5, if nothing happens to him!
