Recent Craftsman Truck Series race winner Matt Crafton will practice and qualify Robby Gordon’s NASCAR Sprint Cup car at Dover International Speedway this weekend while Gordon competes in the Baja 500 off-road event.
A three-time Baja 500 champion, Gordon hopes to add a fourth crown in the event, which goes green at approximately 12:30 p.m. EDT on Saturday. The course covers 441 miles.
On Thursday, Gordon will be inducted into Carrera Cantina’s Hall of Fame for Baja participants. He will join his father, Bob Gordon, who is a member of the hall of fame as well.
Gordon plans to fly to Dover immediately after the event in Mexico to compete in Sunday's Best Buy 400.
