RESULTS
1. Jeff Gordon
15. David
16. Michael
20. Kurt
22. Dale Jr.
39. Casey
40. Brian
42. Martin
Even though qualifying wasn't as stressful since all our boys are locked in, time trials at Martinsville always makes me nervous. Luckily, no one wrecked! I was actually very impressed with David and Michael's qualifying runs since they should be in something closer to race setup now than they have ever been. It's a good showing for David's first run in the #44 UPS car, so let's hope Martinsville is kinder to him than it has been in the past (don't worry David, I don't like the place either!).
On the opposite side of the field sit Casey, Brian and Martin. Brian had a bit of a spin in practice so I could see why he was being careful. Casey and Martin just looked out of control.
It's hard to make up track position at this hairpin short track... hopefully their crew chiefs can make some pit strategy calls to help them go forward. Especially Casey, who needs all the points he can get (a little luck wouldn't hurt, either).
No Nationwide race, so David can focus on his Cup team and maybe get over the cold he sounded like he had during an interview today.
