Martinsville Speedway Documentary

Details and Storyline

The smallest city in the United States to host a NASCAR raceway is Martinsville, VA. With a population of roughly 12,000 the Martinsville economic survival depends on over 60,000 tourists who who attend two NASCAR races each year. Because of COVID-19, this year the races will continue but without fans. How will Martinsville survive this devastating loss and not end up like so many other small towns in the United States?

"My goal is to highlight the massive impact the Martinsville Speedway has on not only the Martinsville economy, but also its culture. To an outside eye, I can only imagine what an massive asset the Martinsville Speedway is for the local community and the pride associated with it." -Director Jason Paquette
