It's been a pretty nasty start to the Nascar season for Mark Martin. Rain shortened Daytona, 2 DNF's and a flat tire in the next 3 races almost put him out for the season.
Then came last night.

The old man gets it done

Oldie but a goodie
Fifty-year-old Mark Martin was vintage Mark Martin on Saturday night in Phoenix. He had a dominant car early. He was even better late. And he turned it into his 36th career victory and first with Hendrick Motorsports. Who said that championship talk is a thing of the past?

As low as 34th in points and he is now 13th only 9 points out of the Chase. http://www.supernova19.com/forumcw/Smileys/classic/clapping.gif http://www.supernova19.com/forumcw/Smileys/classic/excited.gif

I started to watch it last night, but since I'm older than MM, I fell asleep.

He's about the last of the non-whiners left in Nascar. :garfield:

I'm not a nascar fan and don't watch their races, but years ago I recall MM winning a string of road races year after year. That's when I started to like him.

Good for him!
