Legendary NASCAR driver Mark Martin is returning to Roush Fenway Racing.
But dont expect Martin, 55, to get back behind the wheel any time soon.
Rather, hell be helping those RFR drivers who will be behind the wheel themselves.
The organization announced Thursday morning that Martin will assume a newly-created role as driver development coach.
The thing that always stood out about Mark was his unmatched drive to win, team co-owner Jack Roush said in a media release. Mark put us on the map and I am pleased to have him as a part of our team again.
Thanks. Mark was one determined driver! Kenny Schrader did driver coaching for a few years but haven’t heard a whisper from him in a couple years
One of the smartest moves by any team I have heard in years.
