Martin will be in town to promote the upcoming Southern 500 set for May 8. The luncheon will begin at 11:30 a.m., and will include a question and answer session with the two-time Southern 500 Champion moderated by an announcer from the Motor Racing Network.
Fans interested in attending the event must first sign-up at DarlingtonRaceway.com/MarkMartin. The event will be held at the Florence Civic Center and is free of charge. Directions and information about the Florence Civic Center are available on DarlingtonRaceway.com.
“We wanted to create an event we could invite our fans to participate in,” Browning said. “Mark is a fan favorite, and a perfect fit at Darlington because he has such a great appreciation for the history of our sport, and we are really looking forward to hosting this great event.”
Following the question and answer session, five lucky fans and a guest will be selected to attend a meet and greet with Martin.
“Darlington is one of my favorite stops on the schedule. To win the Southern 500 you have to battle the track as well as the other competitors,” Martin said. “The fans that come out and support Darlington are great. I’m really looking forward to hanging out with them on March 17.”
