What you need to know
Martinsville Spring Race Weekend 2027 runs Apr 16–18, 2027, in Ridgeway, Virginia. Measure before you buy: a standard Martinsville site is 18 by 40 feet, and your rig, tow vehicle and awning all have to fit inside it.
Martinsville Speedway lists its spring 2027 weekend for Friday, April 16 through Sunday, April 18, and bills it as a short-track showdown: tight turns, hard contact and the grandfather clock that goes to the winner.
Camping here is plain and close. On the speedway's fall 2026 camping page, most sections were grass sites measured at 18 by 40 feet with no hookups, one tow or companion vehicle per site, and everything you bring has to fit inside the space; a paved Class A section adds 50-amp power and water access. Check-in wants the camping ticket saved to a phone wallet and a photo ID, and the speedway gives 680 Clover Rd, Ridgeway, as the address for navigation. Rigs that need full-service camping can base at Salthouse Branch on Philpott Lake, a Corps of Engineers campground northwest of Martinsville with water and electric sites and a dump station, open from April.
Safety rules and an insider tip
Safety + legal. The speedway allows fires only in approved raised fireplaces and bans campfires on the ground, bonfires, fireworks and sky lanterns; check with the campground host for any burning ban that weekend.
