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.
