Jeff Gordon open to racing a truck at Martinsville

Jeff Gordon's answer during a #askJG question-and-answer session with fans online Saturday leaves the door open the exciting possibility of seeing him back on track. A fan asked if Gordon would be open to part-time duty in either the NASCAR Xfinity Series or NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. Gordon said he's happy in the booth with FOX and isn't considering any driving at a 1.5-mile track or superspeedway. BUT (this deserves all caps) he might want to race a truck at Martinsville Speedway. https://twitter.com/NASCARONFOX/status/967429584399536129 You can count Ray Evernham, NASCAR Hall of Famer and crew chief for three of Gordon's championships, among those who like the idea. Track personnel were also pretty excited at the possibility. https://twitter.com/MartinsvilleSwy/status/967449764072706049 OK, really excited. And quick to provide context about Gordon's long-standing love affair with the 0.526-mile " Paperclip." His career stats at Martinsville are impressive. https://twitter.com/MartinsvilleSwy/status/967451026688274438 And Gordon's last race at Martinsville as a full-time driver? "We're going to Homestead!" is etched among the greatest Victory Lane moments of all time. Yep, "giddy" accurately describes the reaction to possibly seeing Gordon race again for a Grandfather Clock.
