Four-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Jeff Gordon will be the celebrity builder for this week's 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition' build in Horry County, officials announced this morning.
Gordon has won a record seven times at nearby Darlington Raceway, his first victory coming at the 1995 Southern 500 and the most recent at the 2007 Dodge Avenger 500.
Gordon also is a three-time Daytona 500 winner in the No. 24 car for Hendrick Motorsports.
Gordon won one race in 2009 and finished third in the NASCAR Sprint Cup standings behind four-time champion and Jimmie Johnson and Mark Martin, both teammates.
The site of the home build will be announced shortly.
