Martinsville Speedway will celebrate 75 years with a special event for fans on Wednesday evening. To thank fans for their continuous support over 75 years, Martinsville Speedway will offer free Martinsville Hot Dogs, cold beverages, birthday cake, live music, iconic photo moments with the 75th anniversary logo and Martinsville Speedway grandfather clock, and track laps for fans in their personal vehicles. All activities are free to the public for the track’s iconic 75th anniversary. Martinsville Speedway is the only NASCAR track to host NASCAR Cup Series races every year since its inception in 1949.  The track itself held its first race in 1947 on dirt months before the creation on NASCAR. Martinsville Speedway President Clay Campbell in talking about the history of the track said in a news release, “Martinsville Speedway is home to some of the most historic moments in NASCAR history and every memorable moment has been filled with the cheers of our loyal race fans. To share our gratitude, we are inviting the community and race fans across the country to celebrate with us on the anniversary of our first race.”
