Great Racing At Great Prices In 2012

Fans are wild over Martinsville Speedway action.

With less than a month to go before the Goody's Fast Relief 500 at Martinsville Speedway on April 1, fans still have a chance to get good seats for one of the most exciting races on the NASCAR Sprint Cup circuit every year.

Last spring Kevin Harvick got by Dale Earnhardt with three laps to go to capture the Goody’s Fast Relief 500. Harvick’s pass of Earnhardt was the 31^st lead change in the race, breaking a record that had stood for more than 30 years. There were 23 lead changes and 18 caution periods in the TUMS Fast Relief 500 last fall.

“It’s no secret that the best racing action is at short tracks, and Martinsville Speedway had the best action anywhere this year,” said Martinsville Speedway president Clay Campbell. “The feedback we’ve gotten the last few days from fans and even from the drivers has been amazing. They all agree it doesn’t get any better than the racing we had at Martinsville Speedway this year.”

Fans can capture all that great racing in 2012 at great prices. Tickets for the Goody's Fast Relief 500 on April 1 start at just $37.

Like Harvick, Tony Stewart scored a close and popular victory last fall in TUMS Fast Relief 500. Afterwards he talked about the excitement that is Martinsville.

“To pass Jimmie Johnson on the outside at Martinsville with two laps to go and to watch the crowd on the backstretch, then watch them on the front stretch when we cleared him, you swear people are going to fall onto the racetrack,” Stewart said after his third career Martinsville win.

“You feel that energy. You sense that. That’s not that you need extra motivation, but it’s cool to know you got that kind of support. It’s just that extra drive that gets you the rest of the way that last lap. It’s cool”
