The two brothers once had little respect for what the other did for a living. but when Jordon got a movie role playing a race car, he was forced by the studio to spend time shadowing his brother Ralph. After two long months of research, Jordon came away with a new respect for how hard racing really is. And after seeing his brother's performance in the film. Ralph gained a new respect for acting. Now Jordon never misses a race, and Ralph never misses a premiere.
