Now, who says being a spectator isn’t a sport?

Tension between Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson? There was no hiding it following Sunday’s Aaron’s 499 at Talladega Superspeedway where, moments after getting out of his torn up race car, Gordon had this to say about his teammate and friend: “The 48 [Johnson] is testing my patience. It takes a lot to make me mad, but I am pissed right now. … I don’t know what it is with me and him right now.”
We think Jeff Gordon may just be a little fed up with being on the losing side of this sensational team. To be completely fair though, we’re sure #24 isn’t the only driver tired of losing to Jimmie Johnson.
The question now is how does this impact their relationship going forward?

Gymkhana literally means ‘Car Rodeo’. The word has origins from Urdu language meaning ‘Fitness Club’. In the west, it is a type of motorsport practiced in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, and South Africa. Similar to autocross, gymkhana courses are often very complex and memorizing the course is a significant part of achieving a fast time. The governing body of Gymkhana in Japan is the Japan Auto Federation, a Japanese division of the FIA.
