Ricky Hendrick will be joined at the test by four-time Winston Cup champion Jeff Gordon. “I’m looking forward to giving him some horsepower under the rear wheels,” Gordon said. “The Busch cars have less horsepower, so I’m interested to see how he’ll do with all that horsepower. I think it’ll be fun and exciting for him.” Asked if Hendrick was going to jump in his car, Gordon replied: “That’s what he thinks. I don’t know what they’ve planned.”(ThatsRacin.com)(9-29-2002)
