I wonder what it means when? Mark Martin says " I was ready to go racing 10 laps into it.?

May be...

not really he is just pumping his team up and saying that he has a real good car and making himself high expections showing fans that some of the old guys can still contend for races.

All the DEI drivers have been arrogant. They have been very very good. Especially the #8 and #1.


Watch out!

He meant that it only took 10 laps to get his setup right,and he was feelin' racy! Mark Martin is no braggart.

Nope. He's just trying to say he's ready to race. No bragging.

Means he was really excited and wanted to be out there revin' it up with tha big boy's!!!!

No it is not bragging--It means he has got a good car+ the set up was right and he is ready to get racy instead of waiting until the last 20 laps to start making moves!!!!!

In old-style Nascar speak....
It took 10 laps or so for Mark's car to get "dialed-in" (tires up to pressure, oil up to temp/pressure, right amount of tire wear, and so on) where his car felt really good.

A good handling car is what you want at Daytona.

Mark's happy, but not bragging.

We tried a few set up ajustments . I got a realy strong horse here. Is he bragging?

It's hard to really know what he means when he says something. Remember when he said he was going to retire because he was really excited to be running the Craftsman Truck Series?

that means he has a good car and is ready to go racing.. just hope the motor holds..

I'd say it means he is happy with the set up and the car seems strong, and he is ready to race and see who has what.


and to answer your additional details--Yes that would really be nice
