Back to the "PaperClip" we go. I couldn't be happier. Simply put, I love this track, because there is so much that can go on during 500 laps. Let's get down to business.
--Jimmy Johnson has two chase wins here at Martinsville. Johnson ran 2nd in Happy Hour, and with qualifying cancelled due to rain, Johnson looks poised to make it capture his third chase race win at the Virginia short track.
--Dale Earnhardt Jr. led the most laps here in the spring race and ran 4th in Happy Hour yesterday.
--Jeff Gordon was first in Happy Hour and has had some memorable races in the past here at Martinsville.
--A matchup to watch will be Carl Edwards and Kevin Harvick. The both start in the top 10 and could carry their feud from Talladega and Charlotte onto the track today.

--Here's the Martinsville (Va.) Bulletin's take on the race.
Podium Predictions:
1. Jimmy Johnson -- Can you really afford not to pick him?
2. Denny Hamlin -- Local kid ran fast in practice.
3. Jeff Gordon -- Fastest in Happy Hour should translate to success on Sunday.
Dale Jr. and Carl Edwards round out the top 5.
