  • Episode 364 -- David Lovendahl on the Rough-and-Tumble Times of Mark and Julian Martin
    2025/09/17
    This week, listeners are just gonna have to hear the first of our two-part interview with David Lovendahl to believe it. David was there as Mark Martin was first learning how to drive a race … he was there when Mark first went Winston Cup racing and when that all fell apart. Plus … let’s just say that he’s got some stories about Julian Martin, Mark’s dad. We then dig into the September 17, 1981 issue of Grand National Scene Benny Parsons wins on a terribly hot and humid day at Richmond, after pole-sitter Mark Martin has trouble getting his car started as the field rolls off pit road to start the race. Finally … it’s one of those days where folks just can’t seem to get along and play nice on the race track.
