About the Author

Jeff Gordon is a four-time Winston Cup champion. Originally from Vallejo, California, he quickly outgrew a stellar career as a quarter midget racing and sprint car champion, and, in 1992, found himself at the tender age of twenty-one winning a Busch series race in Atlanta, his first win on the NASCAR circuit. From there he's won everything there is to win, including the four Winston Cups, a record equaled only by Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt. Now a part owner of a car of his own, the Lowe's #48 driven by Jimmie Johnson, he continues to chase a record-breaking fifth championship. He lives in Florida, North Carolina, and at racetracks around the country. This is his first book.
