(I am not approving of this myself, but it is NASCAR, where it's part of the sport to "gently" bump into each other at 180 MPH. )
Sr. and Gordon were actually friends and had zero animosity towards each other. I think to casual fans Sr. seemed more menacing but to people who followed NASCAR they knew he was just another guy. It was all marketing. He may have been hell on wheels(and the track) but he was a pretty nice guy off it mostly. No way he'd have approved.
