More than 90 cars have filed entries for the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway, the crown jewel of the Late Model Stock Car season.

The star-studded event Late Model Stock Car event pays $32,000 to the winner. Perhaps more importantly, the winner also receives a Ridgeway Grandfather Clock, just like the one awarded to NASCAR winners at the historic venue.

Past winners entered for Saturday's race include defending champion Landon Pembelton, two-time race winner Timothy Peters, 2016 victor Mike Looney and 2008 race winner Jason York.

Peyton Sellers and Layne Riggs have spent the 2022 season battling each other for the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series National Championship, often against one another on-track at venues such as South Boston Speedway and Dominion Raceway. While a champion will be crowned officially this week by NASCAR, they will look for another measure of bragging rights with a big win at Martinsville.

The ValleyStar Credit Union 300 is also one of the few chances each year where Late Model Stock drivers who typically compete at NASCAR-sanctioned weekly racing tracks will race against drivers from other tracks, as well as the regulars of the CARS Late Model Stock Tour.

Carson Kvapil, Connor Hall, Chad McCumbee, Conner Jones, Jonathan Shafer and Brenden Queen, all winners on the CARS Tour in 2022, will be looking for another checkered flag for the season. They will be joined by other CARS Tour regulars such as Bobby McCarty, Kaden Honeycutt, Mason Diaz and Mini Tyrrell.

A full list of entries, 93 drivers strong, can be seen below.

The ValleyStar Credit Union 300 sees a tweak to the race format for 2022. The field for the 200-lap feature race will be set through four 25-lap qualifying races. No drivers will lock in through qualifying, nor will there be a Last Chance Qualifier.

Teams will first take the track at 2 p.m. ET Friday, September 23 in a four-hour practice session. Qualifying will follow Friday evening at 8 p.m. ET to set the lineups for the four qualifying races.

Fan gates will open at 12:30 p.m. ET Saturday, with a Fan Garage Experience autograph session taking place starting at 12:45 p.m. Racing begins at 3 p.m., with pre-race ceremonies for the feature starting at 5 p.m. and the 200-lap feature race starting at 7 p.m.
