Now that Juan Montoya gets to put the beating and banging from Bristol in his rearview mirror, he's got Martinsville next -- a smaller track that can be less forgiving when it comes to navigating the paperclip corners.
Montoya is coming off his worst finish this season: a 32nd-place showing at Bristol where he was seven laps down. So going to Martinsville for the second consecutive short-track race and the second consecutive Car of Tomorrow event, he hopes the growing pains heal themselves.
Montoya can be heard on Sirius Speedway (3-7 p.m. ET Mondays) with Dave Moody on Sirius channel 128, and NASCAR.COM will track Montoya's first full Cup season:
