Martinsville Speedway President Clay Campbell:
“In my view, the greatest thing to take away from the announcement from Brian tonight is not just the change in the points system. It’s the fact the points system is being SIMPLIFIED FOR OUR FANS. I’ve been in this business over thirty years and I cannot explain the old points system, that can’t be good for our current fan base nor those out there we are trying to attract to our sport. I applaud Brian for taking this bold step to change something that’s been in place for decades. We have a unique sport that has many facets that when all combined produce the most exciting competition one can witness. The races here at Martinsville Speedway are some of the most exciting of the year and this most certainly will make it more compelling for the fans to be able to keep up with where their favorite driver is points wise.”
