 Jeff Gordon (UPDATE) -- Chase leader Jeff Gordon is coming off of two consecutive wins as the Cup Series moves to Martinsville this weekend. Gordon has not won there since 2005, but he leads all active drivers with seven Martinsville wins. "Ya know everybody is talking, Martinsville, oh, that's your track, that's your track. We're going to Martinsville with the same attitude, the same game plan to come out of there with a strong, consistent finish," said Gordon.Gordon raced teammate Jimmie Johnson to the Martinsville finish line in the spring to take a second place finish. He has five poles, 17 top-fives and 23 top-10s at Martinsville. "We're not going there saying this is our place to get another win. We just want to go there and keep doing what we've been doing to stay consistent." Gordon has the second highest rating at Martinsville, but Tony Stewart, who is fourth in points right now, rates first at the short track. There is the potential for a Chase shuffle this weekend.
