Martin was chosen for Goodyear tire testing for this race.

"It's going well," said Martin, who won the pole for the 2009 Kobalt Tools 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. "They have some stuff that grips better than the tire that we ran here last fall. That tire had great durability [the tire from last year] ... and they're trying to find something that has that same durability and be a little more grip friendly."

Sounds like he wasn't happy with the durability of these tires.
