Although it seems like it was just a few Fridays ago that we were all sweating out the work day waiting to pack your racing bags and head to the track, the racing season is just around the corner.

This is the hardest time of the year for race teams.  Everyone at Greg Martin Motorsports is hard at work putting together sponsorship proposals and packages to try and get the #4 machine back on the track for next season.

This year hopes to be more successful year for us.  We hope to bring more wins to you the fans and sponsors then we did last year.  We made it through some bad midyear luck to end up ninth in points.  All in all landing in the ten in points a notching our first career sportsman modified win was fantastic.

I want to make sure and thank you all for the most popular driver award I received in 2007.  That award could have never been possible without all of you.  I was truly honored to win that and thank you all again.  Hope you’re all looking forward to the upcoming racing season as much as we are.  See you in April.

Greg Martin and the Greg Martin Motorsports Team

Greg started 10th in the feature racing his way up to as far as 5th place during the race.  Greg crossed the finish line in 5th place but was later awarded 4th due to a Ransomville Speedway ruling on Don Spatorico.  Double points were awarded which helped Martin take finish in sole position of 9th.
