Gordon Eyes Winston Million After Darlington Victory Hopes
Jeff Gordon, leader in the Winston Cup standings, targets this weekend at Watkins Glen and the Aug 31 Darlington race. A Mountain Dew Southern 500 win would make him the first to win three straight at Darlington, join Elliott as a Winston Million winner, and claim NASCAR's crown jewel if he also seizes Daytona and Charlotte. Gordon stresses the event’s prestige over money and notes the path includes races at Watkins Glen and other tracks before Labor Day.
