News and Notes
Jul 23
This week: Martin has finished in the top 10 in the last three races at Indy and in four of the last five. Martin shocked the world in June when he said the team was "going to Indy looking to win the Brickyard 400. Our car was awesome at Phoenix and Richmond, and we parked it after that in order to have it for the Brickyard 400. We have the team that can get it done." Last race: Martin finished 17th at Chicagoland. Etc.: To the surprise of no one, Martin said, "I've been looking forward to this race for quite some time. This U.S. Army team is strong enough on pit road, and (crew chief) Tony Gibson and the guys on this team are due for a win. Nothing would make me happier than to see their faces in victory lane." Martin is leaving the team at the end of the season to move to Hendrick Motorsports, for which he will run the full circuit in 2009. |
