And, when you- wait, you think. And, when you think, you think especially hard about the Dogwood 500 at Martinsville. Sunday. No one thinks harder than Asheville's Jack. Ingram, the reigning Sportsman champion.

Ingram leaves for Martinsville Wednesday to Join a merry chase which has drawn .106 Sportsman entries and pays $3,000 to win. In case you are interested, it also pays 500 precious national championship points to win. "I guess you could say Martinsville is the Daytona of Sportsman racing," Ingram said Tuesday. "There are so many good cars and good drivers that it just takes something extra and a little racing luck to do well there. "I've run second two out of the last three times I've run there.

Both times I was leading the race when I got tangled UP a i i lie's grinding weekend begins Wednesday with registration and inspection. Thursday morning is reserved for practice before qualifying from 1-3 p.m. Ingram would like to sit on the pole, of course.

I think I'm ready and I'm kind of enthused though I know, how tired I'll be at the end of the Sunday's show is not now, but will be a sellout. The Sportsman race begins at 1 p.m. with the Modified race to follow. According Martinsville Speedway information, the race will be broadcast by the Motor Racing Network.

"That's' what I like about Martinsville, there are so many good cars and good drivers. It doesn't take long before the good cars and drivers have outclassed the field."
