This is race weekend at Martinsville! Qualifying for Sunday's Goody's Cool Orange 500 is Friday afternoon, the Craftsman Truck Series race is Saturday at 3, then the Cup race Sunday just after 2:00.
Jimmie Johnson is going for his fourth straight win at Martinsville, he and teammate Jeff Gordon have won eight of the last 10 races at the half-mile track. We'll see if anybody can break that Hendrick domination this weekend.
Greg Biffle, Second in Points Standings - "You know the last Martinsville race was my best race there, you know, finished in the top 10. So I think we're getting it figured out a little bit. But that, that place is all about track position."
Elliott Sadler, 20th in Points Standings - "Love going to Martinsville, it's so close to home and used to go there a lot as a fan. So to be able to go back there and race and enjoy that part of it is pretty special. So I got close to victory lane there a couple of years ago, I finished top five and ran good the whole time."
