Erick Rudolph Quotes:

ON MARTINSVILLE SPEEDWAY - "Last year was my first year racing at Martinsville and things didn't really work out. We ended up in an accident and were out of the race pretty early, but we were fast. I'm looking forward to getting back there to race and to the nice weather. Hopefully, we'll get a good finish."
