My first race at 10 years old. Jeff Gordon being my favorite driver. I’ll never forget that day. I had so much fun going with my dad. Martinsville is such a great track. It’s probably because of this race that I love short tracks so much.
Thanks to him. I been looking for one that was of decent quality. I had one on a tape but I lost it in a move. Tony Stewart loses his tire and he then wins the next year.
That was great comeback for Jeff Gordon from 3 laps down, to win the race, that was awesome. I know he didn't mean to spin Kurt Busch out, but Jeff went for it, but wasn't enough room to fit. On the other hand, that's short track racing.

So many contenders in this race had issues in the second half of this race. Bobby Labonte having his engine start to give out while leading with 100 laps left was rough.
The year I hated Kyle Busch Good Season 05 ; Tony Stewart Bad Luck Season 05 ; Dale Jr Memorable races 05; Texas Elliot Salder & Kasey Kahne photo finish, Dale Jarrett & Smoke October Dega race

It’s hard to believe with how bad Martinsville was to Kasey Kahne he finished 2nd here in such a rough season.

Kasey Kahne should have won!
Kasey just didn't have the car team or talent to beat Jeff at Martinsville if his car was just decent
