My name is Charles Ball from Virginia. I have been a Jeff Gordon fan since he started racing in Winston Cup. It has been very exciting to cheer him on and to meet him on many occasions. He was a driver with class, talent and sportsmanship. I certainly miss seeing him out there on the track every week; racing doesn't seem the same. However, he does an awesome job from the commentator's booth. He brings such knowledge to the viewing public. He was and will always be one of the greats of NASCAR racing.
