š Jeff Gordon went undercover for Pepsi Max in 2013 and turned an ordinary Camaro test drive into one of the most memorable car commercials of the era.
ā
The four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion appeared disguised as a nervous customer before climbing into a Chevrolet Camaro with a supposed salesman.
ā
Within moments, the calm test drive turned into burnouts, slides and aggressive stunt driving while the passenger desperately begged for it to stop.
ā
The commercial went massively viral, but the original prank was not completely genuine.
ā
Reports later revealed that the salesman was an actor and professional racer Brad Noffsinger performed much of the stunt driving seen in the finished video.
ā
That did not stop the ad from becoming a huge hit, and Pepsi followed it with a second Jeff Gordon prank campaign the following year.
ā
Is this still one of the best automotive commercials ever made?
