i think it will an exciting race. i don't think it matters what car they are in because martinsville is almost always exciting. usually what happens is two cars will go side by side into the turn and the car on the inside will get loose, hit the yellow curb or they will slide when they get on the brakes and the car on the outside gets spun out because they make contact. towards then end of the race people just start hitting each other and bumping them out of the way. should be a great race.

There will be less accidents caused by lifting the rear end of the car in front, because the bumpers match, and the trailing car can't get underneath the leading car. However, Martinsville is all about beating and banging--it is the only way to pass on the "paper clip" track (so called because of its shape), so there should still be plenty of wrecks and tempers flaring, which will cause more wrecks.

Yes there will be plenty of wrecks and spins. Pole Speed 94 MPH so no big flips should happen. Shoul be some passing as well.

There will be alot of cars spinning out, cause they are so big and trying to pass, and the ole racing term.."Rubbing is Racing" yep thats Martinsville..There will be wrecks, but the speeds are that high, but so many on that small track..It will be exciting lots of passing, spinning and there will be some fender benders...Should be a great race...So much for sleeping in for me in Calif it comes on at 10am out here..
Go Dale Jr Go......win martinsville

After about 25 laps, the leaders have caught the tail end of the pack, so there should be passing all day long.

...What you can expect to see is some people spinning the other drivers out. Usually when they pass it's because the driver in behind was able to get the nose of his car underneath the rear of the other car as they enter the corners.
...Wrecks aren't that great because the speeds are a lot slower on this particular track.
