Loraine, an avid racing fan, met Gordon earlier this year at a special VIP Experience and the driver learned that she had lost her car.
This week, Gordon surprised Loraine by giving her his personal model of the vehicle.
“If you have this car, you are definitely one of my biggest fans,” he said to Loraine. “It broke my heart to know that you had one of these cars and it caught fire and burned down… We wanted to find you a car to replace that car.”
