One thing a lot of people are forgetting is that the Busch Series may not have become as prominent as it has without guys like Martin.When he first got into the series it was litle more than a short track touring division and had trouble drawing enough entries to for a full lineup.Winston Cup drivers competed when the series ran as companion events to complete the field and draw attention to the division.
I still think given the series growth that limits should be put on the number of Cup drivers in a race and the number of events they can enter in a season.In the begining their presence was beneficial to the series but now has become a hinderance.The regulars in the Busch Series are there to gain experience to keep a pool of fresh talent for the Cup series.If they're loading up after qualifying then the series purpose is being defeated.
