From the Marbles - NASCAR

A little bit of Whelen fence-climbing from this past weekend at Loudon. Come up with a caption, won't you, friends? Thank you ever so much!

After the jump, Mark Martin cleans up a bit.

The Hitman:
Mark Martin comes to the shocking realization that he has been winning races because somebody was greasing the shoe on his braking foot. Now the old man has a dilemma, wipe off the grease and be able to pound the brakes among the young whipper snappers again or pretend he never noticed and take the title he deserves.

Rise With Us:
"I told him I was gonna kick his ass, just didn't think I'd get a piece of it on me, though."

    Some drivers will go to great lenghts for some clean air!
    And my totally off topic rant:
    I would like to see Nascar drop one race at Pocono, California, and Michigan. Bring one back to the Rock. Fix up North Wilkesboro and give them a race. Give a second date to Vegas but, make 'em run the dirt track there. Let's see those splitters in the mud! More short tracks and less of these cookie cutter bore fests!!!

    Yeah you can pass on the outside before the green flag on restarts, but that's the outside while still on the track guys!
