CLEAR LAKE, Iowa — Kody King will be honoring one of his heroes when the CARS Pro Late Model Tour heads to Hickory Motor Speedway for the Throwback 276 on July 30. The scheme that will adorn King’s car is a tribute to four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon. King said the decision to utilize Gordon’s Baby Ruth scheme for his Lee Faulk Racing Pro Late Model was an easy one. “I have been able to watch Jeff Gordon as a driver, broadcaster and now as a winning car owner. Gordon tallied two more victories during that 1992 season in the Baby Ruth car, both at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “There’s no better way to honor Jeff Gordon’s career than with the scheme that started it all,” Faulk said.
