MARTINSVILLE, Va. — Martinsville Speedway will host the 30th rendition of NASCAR’s biggest and most prestigious late model stock car race this fall, celebrating 30 years of the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 — the finale of the Virginia Triple Crown.
In honor of this anniversary, Martinsville Speedway is upping the ante in the Triple Crown race. For the first time ever, the winner(s) of the South Boston Speedway and Langley Speedway Triple Crown races will have a guaranteed starting position in the finale. Those winners will have an ensured chance to compete for the championship, regardless of qualifying effort.
“The ValleyStar Credit Union is packed with layers of tradition, intense competition and, most importantly, heart and soul,” said Clay Campbell, President of Martinsville Speedway. “For 30 years it’s been a cornerstone event for teams, drivers and all of us here at Martinsville Speedway, and celebrating this anniversary with some of the most passionate fans in the business is really special.”
Not only does 2025 mark 30 years of the famed Virginia Triple Crown finale, but this year also celebrates 10 years of the longstanding partnership between ValleyStar Credit Union and Martinsville Speedway, dating back to 2015 when the company was first named entitlement sponsor for the ValleyStar Credit Union 300.
The Virginia Triple Crown kicks off this summer with the first race set for June 28 at South Boston Speedway followed by the second race at Langley Speedway on July 19.
Then, it all comes down to the finale at Martinsville, with drivers competing for the title of Virginia Late Model Triple Crown Champion in the 30th anniversary of the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 on Saturday, Sept. 27.
