Farewell to the car of yesterday – The final race of the year is also the final appearance for the car of yesterday in the NNCS series. Next season only COT’s will be raced. Chassis 104 will serve as primary this week, which was last raced at Lowe’s Motor Speedway in October. Chassis 110 will serve as back up.

Baja 1000 – Robby Gordon and his No. 71 Monster Energy / Toyo Tires trophy truck finished a respectable third in his class and fifth overall for the 40th annual Baja 1000. Gordon and his Nextel Cup crew will return back to the United States on Thursday and head straight to the season finale in Homestead, Miami. Gordon started a new tradition by taking the majority of his Cup crew on the Baja adventure. Gordon’s reason - to give his team an up close look at what his off-road racing is all about.

Tight Race – Currently in the 28th position in owner points, Gordon is just 128 points out of 25th in the owner standings.

Meet the Driver – Gordon will end the NNCS season by signing autographs at his souvenir trailer on Sunday at 11:10 am.
