Martin was in my ill-fated pit row at Laguna Seca a couple weekends ago. There was some nasty carnage among us, but it looks like I got off the easiest, with only an alternator and a hose going out (as far as I know--I haven't even started the car since).
Getting back to Martin, several of us had fun ironically discussing the other Fairmont, the brown wagon, and someone referred to it as the ****box; Martin's silver car was on the trailer before mine was. Given the damage to the silver Fairmont, Martin's attitude was great. Actually, everybody whose car was trashed had a great attitude at Laguna--it was like bizarro world or something...
I wish Martin the best of luck in getting to Las Vegas. I get the sense he'll succeed.
For those who don't know, check the link to see Martin's silver Fairmont in action at Laguna Seca:
