In Fort Worth the Texas Star Telegram notes Jeff Gordon's career high season with a record tying 13 victories and his third Winston Cup championship at age 27. The piece questions the longevity of Gordon's surge, his potential to surpass Richard Petty's 200 wins, and how long he can maintain peak form amid growing public spotlight. It cites seven poles and 26 top fives among his notable stats and quotes Gordon on his plans to race as long as possible while avoiding burnout.
