Bruce Jenner celebrates divorce by buying Robby Gordon's UTV
Former Olympic decathlete and current reality television star Bruce Jenner is reportedly celebrating his divorce with a kick-ass ride that's NASCAR-driver approved.
According to TMZ, Jenner dropped $50,000 on a UTV (utility vehicle) previously owned by former NASCAR driver Robby Gordon. Bruce's son Burt, who races in the Stadium SUPER Trucks series, posted this picture to his Instagram account.
The caption reads:
So my dad lasted all of about 30 minutes at the @ssupertrucks race this weekend before he went and bought @robbygordon's UTV built by@928_powersports ...can't lie the thing is sick and clean... #kingshocks #ruggedradios #hcrlongtravel #utvunderground That's right folks, dad's gonna come race #kingofthehammers #koh #utv
Bruce is a noted car and racing enthusiast. He's made multiple trips to the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction, served as grand marshall at a Nationwide Series race and has even driven in the Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway.
He may soon be adding off-roading to his résumé.
