That’s awesome having Mark on the show! How amazing 🙂 keep up the great work!
Can we get Mark Martin in the Fox booth
Yes
We did for 1 stage last year
i don’t think Mark is interested in it full-time
Leave a question for either me or Brennan and we may answer it on the next episode!
Does Mark Think He Should Have Won A Championship?
Does Brennan Poole plan on coming back again in the Cup Series?
@FerFerExpress I think he thinks it worked it out how it meant to work out
What team did Brennan want to race for when he was growing up?
For Eric did you ever think you would be this involved in Nascar. And what does it feel like to be this involved in the world of Nascar.
Saw mark win Chicagoland 09 and that was definitely one of my favorite races I’ve been to. As a huge Gordon fan, that was my first time seeing a HMS car win in person.
As a mark fan, it was amazing seeing my driver win. Wish chicagoland speedway would come back. I also would like to see the next gen cars on the indy oval.
Mark Martin has been my favorite driver even before he started racing in the NASCAR series.
Nice
Mark Martin is the Man!!!! I love this guy
Mark talking about racing etiquette is the best take I’ve heard on it. Ill get so frustrated on IRacing from other drivers and Mark got it perfect when he said the right move isn’t your own to make anymore.
My favorite driver of all time. As a smaller guy, Mark is a major role model to me. Height doesn’t equal heart. His class and humility is second to none.
Mark martin is and always has been class act in the sport. Young drivers should take note how to carry yourself.
Epic show! I am so glad you had him on. It was well worth the time to listen to the entire show. I think we all can say our respect for him only increased.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed
Always great to hear from Mark!
Still a Mark Martin fan and after this podcast for a whole new set of reasons
A legend that drove in the most competitive era of Nascar.
Mark Martin is the best Nascar Cup Series driver to never win a championship it in my personal opinion he was better than a lot of the Champions that ended up being he’s one of the best to ever do it
I came into NASCAR in 2009…Mark Martins “swansong” season. Well, dammit, I was a fan. Hendrick hired him out of retirement, and he came on strong in that five car. He’s my age and he came in to the 5 car, and won a bunch of races that year! Life sized images were up in my local commissary for his sponsor at the time. He was basically superman…Jimmie said so. Jimmie had the utmost respect for him. And Martin came in second for the championship….again. He really deserved to win a championship, but I’ve never seen him show any bitterness at all. He always comes across as a very likeable guy that I would love to sit down and have a beer with.
Mark Martin fan since dirt track racing in the 1970s until his retirement from Nascar! Class act! Thanks for having him on your show!
this was awesome. I could tell Mark’s words to Brennan were impactful in the greatest way. They were impactful to me. Keep it up fellas!
What a fantastic interview! Mark is such a class act.
That was an amazing podcast. That encouragement Mark gave to Brennan was so cool.
