Have then in a slower class, on tracks at or smaller then 3/8 miles.
Matt Martin (Mark's son) decided that racing wasn't for him on a professional level. Matt took his fathers passion for physical fitness and made a career out of it. He is now a physical trainer at Hendrick Motorsports.

Mark is spending a lot of time at the dirt tracks now and is a major sponsor of Jared Landers and Scott Bloomquist.
