Is Jeff Gordon on his way to a 5th Title? Is He The Best of The Best ?
Jeff Gordon is just one part of thousands of parts that need to perform properly to win races. These parts make up a whole team, the car and all it's parts, crew, shop members, engineering dept, sponsors, etc. Jeff has enjoyed being a part of the best team most of his career. To say he is the best of the best "drivers" is near impossible. There are many who if teamed up with the "Rainbow Warriors" could have put up the same numbers. There are some who still wouldn't perform with this team. Over time one can tell the "best" from the rest and Jeff fits in, but by what can we truly measure the "best of the best"? One thing nobody can match, Jeff has been with the same team, his only team, his entire career, with the same main sponsor and even basic paint scheme! Congrats to Jeff and his entire team, and this coming from a die-hard Mark Martin fan.
