CONCORD, N.C. – Jeff Gordon has driven many iconic cars throughout a NASCAR career spanning more than two decades.
Now that the driver of the No. 24 Chevrolet is in the midst of his final full-time Sprint Cup Series season, Charlotte Motor Speedway is helping commemorate his stellar career – and the cars that comprised it.
Vehicles from Gordon’s personal collection, along with the Chevrolets that formed the most iconic moments of his career, will be on display at the AutoFair Nationwide Showcase Pavilion at Charlotte Motor Speedway from Sept. 24 to 27.
A young Gordon established success in NASCAR at an early age, and he did so while driving the No. 24 rainbow car.
The iconic rainbow paint scheme retired from the track after the 2000 season, but this year for Gordon’s final year behind the wheel of the No. 24, the paint scheme made its return for one final race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
That rainbow No. 24 Axalta Chevrolet SS will be on display at the AutoFair.
And so will another fan-favorite car, the T-Rex.
Gordon raced the T-Rex car, sponsored by the movie “Jurassic Park,” at the 1997 Sprint All-Star Race, where he dominated the track all the way to Victory Lane.
Fans will also have a chance to check out a few pieces of Gordon’s racing memorabilia and three cars from his personal collection.
Tickets to the AutoFair are $11 per day for adults, with free admission for children 13 and under.
