If F1 stars went dirt track racing…

July 28th, 2010 | Nigel Roebuck | 10 Comments Exclusive

Dear Nigel,

I am heading out to Eldora Speedway tonight to watch Jeff Gordon, Tony Kanaan, Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart and endless others race on the half-mile dirt oval for charity. I was thinking how great it would be to see a Räikkönen, Vettel, Kubica or even a Hamilton out there on the dirt. I know of your love of dirt track racing and was curious as to who you’d like to see, past or present from F1, taking part in such an event, as well as who you think would do well getting lose on the dirt.
