I don't watch Nascar really just saw the last 20 laps today. Is 48 Jimmy Johnson's number?

I'll route his way again.

I thought you didn't like Nascar?

That happens when your teammate wins 5 championships in a row.

Gordon owns his car though, so its not as tough to watch him win as it would be if it was another driver.

I don't know. Gordon was responsible for bringing Jimmy to Hendrick and he was supposed to be the 2nd car to Gordon. Jimmy has now eclipsed him in championships, so that has to eat at him somewhat, even if it did make him millions as an owner.
