Oh yeah...that was freaking awesome.
I was part of that way back when...had to be circa 2002 or so? Maybe even earlier?
It was quite literally laugh out loud stuff one day when it was either a live chat or Jeff Gordon was taking questions for his column...someone (and god bless you but i cannot recall who) asked him if he ever got dizzy from going around and around on the race track.
