About Martinsville Speedway

Founded in 1947 by the late H. Clay Earles, Martinsville Speedway is only track which has hosted Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series races every year since the division's inception in 1951.

At .526 miles in length, Martinsville Speedway is the shortest track on the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series circuit. Because of its small size, tight corners and unique shape - described most often as a paperclip - Martinsville offers some of the most exciting and close-quarters racing in the sport.
