Martinsville, NASCAR's shortest track record book:


Most Wins 15 Richard Petty
Most Top 5s 30 Richard Petty
Most Top 10s 37 Richard Petty
Most Starts 67 Richard Petty
Most Poles 8 Darrell Waltrip
Most Laps Completed 27891 Richard Petty
Most Laps Led 3784 Cale Yarborough
Best Avg. Start* 3.1 Fonty Flock
Best Avg. Finish* 3.8 Dick Hutcherson
Best Avg. Finish among active drivers Jimmie Johnson

I'm sure Danica could beat him today because he's like 93 but to think she will ever be able to drive a car like Petty is silly.

How many people here drive an automatic with two feet (left foot braking)?

Petty was a product of his equipment back in the day... He wouldn't be worth a crap in his prime in Nascar today

My dad raced dirt tracks in the 50's and that's how he taught me to drive. It didn't sit well with my driver's ed teacher though. I don't do it all the time but I still do it.

Do you have any issues when you drive a manual?

My work highway car is a little Cobalt 5 speed. In town I use my right foot to brake because I'm usually going to have to step on the clutch. I pop the brake on the highway though to take off the cruise. My truck is where I almost always use my left foot but that's an automatic.
