Robby Gordon Partners With GEM

In a rather surprising development, Robby Gordon and his single-car operation has signed a Technological and Marketing Agreement with Gillett Evernham Motorsports. The team co-owned by the Gillett family and Ray Evernham is considered one of the premier organizations in the sport, and Gordon envisions added benefits by collaborating with a team that possesses additional resources.
However, Gillett Evernham Motorsports fields Dodge Chargers, which means that Robby Gordon must quickly adapt to the new body style after a season of fielding Ford Fusions. Fortunately, with the new templates, formerly known as the Car of Tomorrow, there are more similarities with the body styles.
This alliance appears to be similar to that of Hall of Fame and Joe Gibbs Racing, or Roush Fenway Racing and Yates Racing. Clearly, this is a step in the right direction for Robby Gordon and his entire organization.
Gillett Evernham Motorsports fields three teams driven by Kasey Kahne, Elliott Sadler, and Patrick Carpentier.
