Travis Kvapil on Racing at Martinsville Speedway:

“Martinsville is one of my favorite tracks. It takes me back to my roots of running the short tracks in Wisconsin. There is always a ton of action and lots of excitement. I’ve had some success there in the past but haven’t quite been able to pull off the win. I’m looking forward to another good run at the ½ mile.”
