Martin, Brad

2010 was Brad's Rookie Year at Bear Ridge, competing in the Ridge Runner Hornets.  One thing you will notice if you ever talk to him....he has a good time no matter what he's doing.  He must enjoy it to make the trek to Bradford from Connecticut every week....and I expect that he'll be bringing a trophy or two home with him this season! WEEK 1 - KDD NAPA OF BRADFORD NIGHT MAY 7, 2011 Win or lose, no one has more fun at the track than Brad! This thing looks great on the track! Really good start for Brad....4th Place Overall Brad and team pose before the action gets underway WEEK 2 - WELLS RIVER CHEVROLET MAY 14, 2011 POSTPONED DUE TO RAIN WEEK 3 - VALLEY FLOORS MAY 21, 2011 3rd Place in the Car Show Looks like bad things are about to happen! The car may not be as pretty as it was but it was damn sure fast! Brad continues to sit in the Top 5 in points WEEK 4 - DAD'S 4 BY TOOL & SUPPLY MAY 28, 2011 Martin's car had issues from the time it unloaded Want to know why I like Brad?  Take a close look as he is pushed off the track after a dismal night..... he continued to wave and give thumbs up to the folks in the crowd.  That's what racing should be about. WEEK 5 - Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank June 4, 2011 Martin ran a borrowed car in this one....but it had nothing for the big dogs Whatever chance Brad might have had went away with this flat left front in the Feature WEEK 6 - MILLER AUTO GROUP JUNE 11, 2011 POSTPONED DUE TO RAIN WEEK 7 - JIFFY MART OF BRADFORD JUNE 18, 2011 Good to see that Brad had his car back together! Just before this photo was taken, Martin had his Jetta up on two wheels and the entire underside was visible....I missed that shot though. WEEK 8 - WELLS RIVER SAVINGS BANK JUNE 25, 2011 Hot laps before the show gets underway Battling in the Feature WEEK 9 - MILLER AUTO GROUP JULY 2, 2011 Brad's crew is working hard to get his car as fast as it was early in the season Another night that didn't end with the result they are after...this time in 7th.  They'll get it put back together and moving forward soon! WEEK 10 - DENNIS PRESTON BUILDER JULY 9, 2011 Brad and his team came into this one full of confidence.....a broken throttle cable in the heat cut a bit of that enthusiasm Once again, Martin got caught up in someone else's mess and came away with a damaged race car WEEK 11 - WELLS RIVER CHEVROLET MID-SEASON CHAMPIONSHIPS JULY 16, 2011 Action from the heat race More action from the heat race.  Brad didn't make it out for the Feature but I have no idea why WEEK 12 - J&A LAWN CARE - BOUDREAULT SEPTIC JULY 23, 2011 Martin looked pretty good in the heat race Action in the Feature with Andy Mooney WEEK 13 - PERRY'S OIL SERVICE JULY 30, 2011 Brad is pretty frustrated these days....this spin by Mike Stender didn't help Brad helps his daughter in the bike race....I guarantee this was the highlight of his night! Action from the Feature WEEK 14 - JTB TOWING & RECOVERY - INTERSTATE BATTERY SYSTEM OF NEW-MONT AUGUST 6, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event WEEK 15 - WALKER MOTOR SALES -   JOHN POOR MEMORIAL AUGUST 13, 2011 Not quite as attractive as the car that won Brad the 3rd place trophy in the car show.... but Martin painted his number on this and got it ready for action  Brad seemed a lot more competitive in his new ride...the Jetta had some issues that the team just couldn't diagnose I hope that Martin can put something together in this "previously owned" ride and get the kinks worked out quickly! WEEK 16 - SWENSON'S INSURANCE CO. AUGUST 20, 2011 I really like the new look of Brad's car! Think Martin's having a good time during Kids Rides?!?  Me too! Not sure what happened to the 7 car but all of a sudden he seemed to almost stop and Brad hit him square in the ass.  Luckily no big damage to the 34 car! WEEK 17 - SABIL & SONS AUGUST 27, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event WEEK 18 - DEAD RIVER COMPANY SEPTEMBER 3, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event WEEK 19 - MEKKELSEN RV SEPTEMBER 10, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event WEEK 20 - 99ROCK CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT SEPTEMBER 17, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event WEEK 21 - NEW ENGLAND DIRT TRACK CHAMPIONSHIPS SEPTEMBER 24, 2011 Brad did not compete at this event He finished the season 8th in the Hornets Full galleries of the action from Bear Ridge Speedway    Return to Bear Ridge 2011                                                                      Return to CreativeOutbursts.com
