Goody's Fast Relief 500 Tag

Many race fans enjoy the speed of Atlanta or the four-wide racing at Talladega or Daytona, but some race enthusiasts love the short track.  Short track racing is highlighted every NASCAR season with 2 races at the unique half-mile track in Martinsville, VA.  This track is noted for being unique because of the "paper clip" like shape that makes Martinsville Speedway so identifiable.  The long straightaways and suffocating turns are a recipe for great racing every year at Martinsville.  2012 will be no different.  This year the Goody's Fast Relief 500 returns to the same slot on the schedule for the eighth consecutive year.
