All credential requests for the 2025 ValleyStar Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway must be submitted by the media outlet's editor, sports editor, sports director, or sports producer and should include everyone from the outlet that requires access to the event.
Submission of an application does not guarantee credentials will be issued. Additionally, if multiple personnel are submitted for an outlet, Martinsville Speedway reserves the right to limit the number of credentials for the outlet. Therefore, the outlet may be asked to reduce the number of submissions.
Previous approval of a credential does not guarantee future approvals for a credential.
Please make every effort to submit only one application per news organization by consolidating the credential requests of your sports, news and photography departments. If you need to submit more than four (4) individuals for credential requests, please reach out to Kendall Lambert at klambert@nascar.com.
Freelance writers, photographers and bloggers may submit a request, however, Martinsville Speedway will make all decisions regarding approvals, outlets, number of credentials allowed per outlet and access.
Each person applying for credentials must include a unique email address and cell phone number on their application. If you are submitting applications for multiple people from your outlet, please ensure that you provide this information for all names. Without unique email address and cell phone numbers, Martinsville Speedway may not be able to provide you with event and credential information, and your application may be denied.
If the person filling out the request also needs a credential, you will need to add yourself on step two with everyone else.
Minors cannot receive a media credential, nor can they be added to a media member’s credential.
If you are a from a college or university outlet (newspaper, TV station, radio station, etc.) and wish to credential reporters or photographers, an advisor or professor who oversees the program must fill out the credential application form in detail. From there, the Watkins Glen International PR department will decide if that program fits within the credential parameters for this event, and how many individuals will be approved for a credential.
If you have any questions regarding this application, please email Kendall Lambert at klambert@nascar.com.
To add additional applicants, please answer "YES" to the final question on the page. Selecting "NO" will submit your completed application to Martinsville Speedway.
Credential Deadline: September 19, 2025
