Gordon gets sponsors

For the last few days, I've talked about my query as to why Robby Gordon, a road-coursing ace who'll get on TV plenty of times today, hasn't been able to find a sponsor, even with his sub par season to this point.

Well, according to scenedaily.com, he finally has, just a little later than expected.

Camping World has elected to put their logos on his car. This is rather odd, as Gordon's team has a lawsuit filed against the company for failing to honor a deal that they thought they signed. I guess both sides were just desperate, and made a last-minute deal despite the bad blood.

In addition to Camping World, DLP and King Taco are sponsoring Gordon's car.

DLP is the usual sponsor for JJ Yeley's number ninety-six car, but he failed to qualify for this race. Therefore, DLP decided to sign a one-race deal with the number seven car.

Even though he's a bit of a jerk, I'm glad that Gordon got some sponsors. It's been a tough season for him so far, but he deserves it considering his stellar results at this track.
