MARK MARTIN!!!!!!!
I noticed I wrote alot more about why I like Jeff B and Dale J on their pages, and with Mark being my favorite driver, it only seems fair to tell you all the story on why he is my favorite.Last year I had alot of ups and downs in my life, and I was also just getting into NASCAR. A friend of mine told me to pick a driver and kind of follow him and then I would find it more entertaining. Well I did, I picked Ernie Irvan, stayed with him until I saw Mark! I said to myself "Who is this guy?" ( I think it was The Calfornia 500 race) I still kept rooting for Ernie, but the more I watched Mark and his determination to win, I became a Mark fan very quickly. As things got hetic in my life, I had Mark every weekend to drive me to keep going and to not give up! As long as you try, it really doesn't matter where you finish, but taking that checkered flag would be nice!!!!!! And the "Golden Boys" of our lives have to lose sometime!!!
YOU
ROCK MARK!!!!!!!!
