Gordon to enter Ambrose once more at Dover-UPDATE
Quote selected text Published September 18th, 2007 in NASCAR News
UPDATE:
Marcos Ambrose has chosen family over money, turning down the chance to compete in this weekend’s Nextel Cup race in Delaware [Dover]. The former V8 Supercar champion was entered to drive a #77 Robby Gordon Motorsport Ford at the race at Dover International Speedway. The deal was meant as a payback after Ambrose and Gordon clashed in the Montreal Busch Series race. However Ambrose has rescheduled his deal with Gordon as his wife Sonja is expecting the couple’s second child this weekend.
“We’ll try and hook up down the road,” Ambrose said yesterday. Ambrose will have a private plane on stand-by to make sure he can rush home to North Carolina as soon as his racing commitments finish. Despite his delay getting to Nextel Cup, Ambrose has the support of Ford and is expected to move to the series at least part-time next year while still driving in the Busch Series. Any deal to move up to the Nextel Cup would come with his current team, Wood Brothers/JTG Racing.

Robby Gordon is helping out Marcos Ambrose once more, entering the Australian in the Robby Gordon Motorsports No. 77 in this weekend’s Dodge Dealers 400 NASCAR Nextel Cup race at Dover International Speedway.
After the two tangled in the Busch Series race in Montreal earlier this season, Gordon provided Ambrose a car for the Cup race at Watkins Glen International. Ambrose did not make that race when qualifying was rained out.

I can’t believe I am saying this but….I am liking Robbie Gordon’s support of ANYONE! I have never like Gordon but he’s actually acting like something other than a rich crybaby for once.
Rumor has it that O.J Simpson Sports Memorabilia will sponsor this car.
