 "That myrtle was a great race up to the final lap," Martin said. "I had a great time racing beach Jeff and Matt, and it got pretty intense there in the end. I was determined to keep my lead. That car was one of my favorites, which is why we''re bringing it back this weekend." Martin also leads all drivers in career series wins. He earned his 44th victory at Texas in April, and still has five races remaining on his golf schedule this year. "We''re going to try to win them all," Martin said.
