MartinsvilleSpeedway

The paperclip-shaped track in the Virginia hills stands as NASCAR's most intimate battleground. At just 0.526 miles, Martinsville Speedway is the shortest track on the Cup Series schedule, creating 500-lap wars of attrition where contact is not just expected—it's required. The grandfather clock trophy and the iconic hot dogs are as much a part of NASCAR lore as the beating and banging that defines racing here.
