Martinsville Speedway
The paperclip-shaped short track known as Martinsville opened in 1947, two years before NASCAR was founded. Under the direction of H. Clay Earles, who ran the speedway until his death in 1999, Martinsville grew from a dusty, rough-hewn operation into one of the most beautiful and modern racing facilities around.
 
Going to go after tickets for this race next year in April. April 1 & 2. Possible even getting tickets for Richmond. Waiting on an email from Richmond letting me know when tickets come out and then going. Definetly going to one of those next year.

Sweet, hope you can go, that would be awesome :)
 
Power Rankings. Has some funny sayings after each name. Well alittle funny, ok not that funny but amusing

1 1 Tony Stewart After the race, his face looked like Harry’s in Dumb and Dumber when Harry starts to attack Lloyd for hiding the extra pair of gloves. "Harry! You’ve got that crazed look in your eye!"
2 2 Greg Biffle He said he ran at 80 percent throttle all night. After his admission, his prize money was slashed from $156,050 to $124,840.
3 9 Jimmie Johnson He is running some black in his paint scheme to toughen up his image, but his Captain America firesuit negated any advantage he gained.
4 7 Ryan Newman I think it’s amazing that a single-car team like Newman’s might win the 2005 title. And people said multi-car teams are ruining the sport.
5 3 Matt Kenseth Well, he is pretty much out of the title chase. Which is kind of a relief, because it means we won’t have to learn a new points system next year.
6 4 Carl Edwards Straight weeks he has said “to be honest with you”: 2
Times he said it when he won at Pocono: 3
Estimated phrase usage for season: 89
7 8 Kurt Busch Every time he runs that Vise-Grips paint scheme, I can’t help but think that the marketing department should make Kurt wear those wrenches as earrings.
8 13 Casey Mears Dude, racers are pretty superstitious, and if you don’t slow it down a little, you’re going to be in that pink car for all 36 races.
9 5 Mark Martin Report: Media selects Martin as early favorite for 2006 Craftsman Truck Series Rookie of the Year over Erin Crocker
10 11 Ricky Rudd Great run on Saturday night. For a second I thought PRN was going to broadcast this: "Rudd is fighting off Hamlin on the final lap! Now Kvapil wants a piece of the action! Hamlin looks high! Reutimann looks low! Rudd holds them both off! Rudd wins!"
11 6 Rusty Wallace I got all choked up when I realized that was Rusty’s final start on a levigated track.
12 10 Brian Vickers I loved his Charlotte quote: “I'm not going to point any fingers, but I think both the track and Goodyear know what they could've have done to avoid what took place.” Pointing a finger is exactly what he did after he said he wouldn’t, and it was a pretty accurate statement.
13 16 Joe Nemechek The battery died on his No. 01 Chevrolet, rendering his hair dryer useless.
14 12 Jeremy Mayfield Girl:Heeeeeeeeeeeey Jeremy! Jeremy: Is that 93 octane you're wearing? Girl: No. It's too expensive.
15 19 Elliott Sadler So I am watching qualifying, and Elliott goes, "I got a good drawwwwwww.” And I am thinking, "Did he mean drawl, or good qualifying draw?"
16 17 Jeff Burton He still gets asked about Ward’s plans every weekend. Ward is only 44, so I figure the questions will finally cease in about six years
17 14 Kevin Harvick He had the quote of the weekend: "Yeah, throw the checkered flag and get the hell out of here."
18 15 Kyle Busch True story: Kyle had to wear a Lowe’s firesuit for much of the weekend since he was in the Busch race, and people were coming up to him for autographs, thinking he was Jimmie Johnson.
19 22 Sterling Marlin He said he sure did wish the track owners had contacted him before they ground down the surface. Sterling, they dropped you an email! Did you not get it?
20 NR Denny Hamlin Dang man. If you had passed two more cars, you would have made enough money to buy a pretty big house.
21 18 Kasey Kahne The faithful Kasey Kahne fans refer to his nighttime blue Charlotte car as Bling-Bling. Bling-Bling is now 0-for-2 with most of the sheet metal donated to charity.
22 21 Jamie McMurray So Chip Ganassi might let him out of his contract after all. Of course, this all came out after Jamie got outqualified at Charlotte by David Reutimann.
23 23 Jeff Gordon I can almost imagine what the spotter was telling Jeff on Lap on Saturday night. “Jeff, Kevin Lepage is right behind you, and before you ask, yes, he is on the lead lap.”
24 NR Michael Waltrip I was seriously thinking for a minute that he was going to win at Charlotte on Saturday night. It would have been his first downforce victory. Of course, there were only six cars left.
25 NR Dale Earnhardt Jr. His latest endorsement is for XLR8 Energy Chews, which is like a Starburst with some Red Bull-type kick to it. They should have given the things to Paul Menard.

747 points for me this race. Rusty hurt alittle. Would love to see what I would have gotten if he didn't get spun out.
 
good job guys. we had 627 pts here. if rusty got the 5th. place he was running in. the pts difference was 49 more points josh. you would have had a real killer day. good job. did you have the same teams in your other league team ?
