Foundational Bricks—The 1994 Brickyard 400: 10th, Mark Martin

Join me as I take a look back every Monday at the starting lineup for one of the biggest races in NASCAR history, the inaugural Brickyard 400.


Starting 10th: Mark Martin #6 Valvoline Roush Racing Ford


Finished: 35th


Mark Martin in 2024
Career Highlights: 40 Cup Series wins, four-time Cup Series championship runner-up, two-time Southern 500 winner, world’s longest retirement tour.


Total Brickyard 400 Starts: 20


Best Brickyard 400 Finish: 2nd (1998, 2009)


1994 Fun Fact: Though he won only two races in 1994, Mark finished second in the season points standings.  The keys to the 6 team’s performance were consistency, top-fives at low-attrition races, and preventing anybody from stealing Jack Roush’s hat.
