About the Author
Mark Martin has been racing all his life . . . well, practically. Mark began his
professional racing career in the 1970s in the American Speed Association,
where he was a four-time ASA champion. He successfully made the transition
into the NASCAR scene in 1981 and has been racking up series points ever
since. Since 1988, he has won 33 races, fourth among active NASCAR NEXTEL
Cup drivers. He is considered by many to be the greatest active NASCAR
NEXTEL Cup Series driver without a championship. Martin’s second-place
finish in 2002 marked the fourth time he has finished second in the final
NASCAR Cup Series point standings. Mark has finished in the top eight in
13 of the last 15 seasons. Mark also has a record four International Race of
Champions (IROC) titles to his credit and is the winningest driver in the
NASCAR Busch Series, with 45 wins. In 2004, he started his 600th career Cup
race in Phoenix, the seventh longest streak in NASCAR history. Off the track,
Martin owns Mark Martin Performance, a company that sells quarter-midget
racing chassis like the one his son, Matt, races in. He also helped build a
quarter-midget track in New Smyrna, Florida.
He lives in Florida with his wife, Arlene, and son, Matt.
Beth Tuschak is a freelance writer associated with NASCAR and has been
invaluable in updating this second edition of NASCAR For Dummies . A syndi-
cated columnist for NASCARMEDIA.com, she also writes freelance stories from
her home in Concord, North Carolina.
