Mark Martin is an OG influencer. Not like the superficial consumer-oriented social media influencers of today; rather he's someone that demonstrates what hard work, determination, and respect can earn you. I had a poster of Mark in my son's room (titled Determination) from birth through when he left for college. He's not a big race fan, but has learned to appreciate hard work and the importance of earning your way. Thanks Mark for all you continue to give us, and to Kenny for a great conversation with one of the best people in our sport! It was great to hear y'all are all right and hearing your perspectives on occasion help keep us on an even keel. Way to go, Herm!

Mr. Humble...as I always called him. Mark Martin...always the gentleman racer who would give you the position without a fuss or fight regardless if it were the first lap or the last lap. As he put it, "If you caught me and was on my back bumper than you definitely had a quicker car." The SAME driver Joey Blo PURPOSELY wrecked to win a rain-shortened event, then wonders why people hate him so much to this day. The very SAME driver who answered honestly in a mid-race interview after wrecking out. Being asked, What happened?" Mark looked right into the camera and said, "Ran out of talent." I believe it was the race where his car veered off the track under YELLOW for no apparent reason. The same man who acted more like a child winning his FIRST NASCAR race out in Phoenix after beating the field in BOTH practice sessions; putting the #5 car on the pole and then SOUNDLY WHIPPING the WHOLE FIELD that night with Alan Gustafson as his crew chief!!! Yes...Mr.Humble who was a BETTER gentleman racer than "Gentleman" Ned ever THOUGHT of being!!!

Sure miss the old days of racing were everyone had fun, I shut it down in 2001 when the bickering got to the point it wasn't fun anymore. Mark was one of my most favorite drivers, he didn't need to take a person out to win a race. Im not sure if Mark still goes up to Idaho during the summer but I'm hoping to meet up with him at the RV park someday. Thank you to all the old time racers that made the sport enjoyable to watch.
