Brad Sweet on Martinsville Speedway

“I’m looking forward to racing at Martinsville this weekend. It’s an old-school, short track tucked in the south of Virginia with a lot of racing history. I hope to get up to speed quickly, qualify well, be competitive throughout the weekend and bring the Great Clips Chevy home with a solid finish.”
