South Boston, VA. - Though Gordon, driver of the No. 66 Samuel Metals Ford, was unable to repeat as the Northern Division champ, he was exactly disappointed to give up his title to St. Amant.

"He’s a great guy," said Gordon. "I have to congratulate him on a great regular season. We had a couple of DNFs that cost us, but Gary had a great year."

"I don’t think it has sunk in yet.  To hold off Benny Gordon, one of the best short-track racers in the country, down the stretch of the regular season was a real test."

Don’t Forget About Me…
Benny Gordon wasn’t spraying champagne, hugging Hooters Girls or mugging for the cameras at the end of the Miller Lite 250, but don’t overlook him in the Championship Series.

"Yeah, I would have liked to win the title, but I was more worried about getting this team ready for the Championship Series," said Gordon. "The car is working good, and the team’s working good. We’ve got the Championship Series coming up, and that’s where they pay all the big money."
