Jeff Gordon Gets Checkered Flag as Online Auction Nets Over $86,000

Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne, and Kevin Harvick, partnering with GoMotorBids.com, raised $86,577 in a 16 day online auction.

Grandview, Missouri (PRWEB) September 26, 2005 -- Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne, and Kevin Harvick, partnering with GoMotorBids.com, raised $86,577 in a 16 day online auction. Sponsored by GoMotorBids.com and benefiting the drivers charities, the auction consisted of a mixture of authentic race-used items, uniforms that had been graciously donated by the driver or teams, plus rare and unique die cast collectibles, some of which had been donated by GoMotorBids.com.

Gordon's bids totaled nearly half the net amount at $43,400 with Stewart coming in second at $22,400, Harvick at $10,850 and Kahne bringing in $9,900. The highest bid went to an autographed and framed
Monopoly Board from Hendrick Racing - signed by Jeff Gordon, Richard Petty, Tony Stewart, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Carl Edwards, Rusty Wallace, Mark Martin, Jimmie Johnson, and others which brought in $3,501.00.

The 275 high bid winners and their guest will each receive a ticket to meet the drivers and have them personally autograph their winning item at a private meet-and-greet event October 6-7, prior to the NASCAR race weekend at Kansas Speedway. The location of the meet-and-greet will be the GoMotorBids.com facility in Grandview, MO, just minutes south of
downtown Kansas City.

All proceeds of the auction went to each of the driver's charitable foundations - The Jeff Gordon Foundation, The Tony Stewart Foundation, The Kasey Kahne Foundation, and for Kevin Harvick, Victory Junction Gang
Camp. For more information visit www.GoMotorBids.com.
