First responders and other Americans of service will also be eligible to receive the ticket discount offering through the partnership. With an existing membership of over 9.5M, GOVX will help to amplify NASCAR's commitment to this deserving community.


"Since the inception of our sport, honoring members of the military has been a big piece of the fabric that makes up NASCAR and, in partnership with GOVX, the Miltix program is one of many ways we're able to do that," said Michelle Byron, NASCAR Executive Vice President, Chief Partnership and Licensing Officer. "There is nothing better than the at-track NASCAR experience, and thanks to GOVX and the Miltix program, it's even easier for current and former members of the military to access that experience."

The Official Partnership will also be supported through robust promotion on GOVX.com, GOVX signage at NASCAR tracks throughout the race season, commercial inventory within NASCAR TV broadcasts, and through NASCAR.com and other digital media placements.

"Over the decades, NASCAR has shown an unwavering appreciation and dedication to our nation's heroes, both on the track and off," said Alan Cole, GOVX CEO. "The opportunity to partner with such a prestigious organization is a privilege, and we look forward to bringing the pulse of America's racing spirit to the GOVX community."

 

NASCAR has a long-tenured and deep-seated appreciation for the military through initiatives such as the annual NASCAR Salutes and Troops to the Track programs, a partnership with Honor and Remember and supporting the mission of Sound Off, a nonprofit organization founded to help reduce veteran suicide through free and anonymous mental health support for veterans and service members.
