Lower Gas Prices, Affordable Seats Make Martinsville Appealing

With gas prices falling quicker than leaves from the trees this fall, and Martinsville Speedway offering some amazing ticket packages, it's the perfect time for race fans to pack their tailgate gear and head out for the TUMS QuikPak 500 Sunday.

 Gas prices have plummeted to under $3 a gallon at many services stations and convenience stores within a hour of Martinsville Speedway, and some per gallon prices have dropped to $2.85 and below.

"For the first time in a long time all of us are seeing some relief at the gas pumps," said Martinsville Speedway president Clay Campbell. "We can all travel a lot cheaper now than a month ago, and with some of our ticket pricing, it's a really affordable weekend at Martinsville Speedway."
