Easter Update
Robby Gordon Motorsports spent Tuesday night at the Aerodyne windtunnel in Mooresville, NC

Robby Gordon Quote

"We have had a great week in the shop. The Easter weekend couldn't have come at a better time for us since we have been able to take full advantage of the extra time in the engine shop as well as in the wind tunnel," said Gordon. "We sent our Texas car to the wind tunnel Thursday night and learned a lot about that program, and the engine shop has been able to get some extra time on the dyno as well.

"We'll take what we learned in the wind tunnel and what we have learned in the engine shop to a test at Texas on Tuesday where we'll run a race simulation to validate what we think we already know. The engine problems that we have experienced are definitely heat related, and a lot of time has been spent in the last few days tracing the source of the issue.

"The test at Texas will let us know whether or not we've hit on the right solution. There is no shortage of work taking place on all aspects of our program, and I've been saying all along that we'll be just fine, and from what I've seen of the progress made this week I'm optimistic."
