Recognizing and congratulating the Martinsville Missile's land speed record for a stock car.

This resolution would have the U.S. House of Representatives congratulate the VA250 Car Project for setting a land speed record for a stock car. The car, called the Martinsville Missile, is a 1969 Dodge Daytona Charger that reached 253 miles per hour on March 23, 2026, at the Shuttle Landing Facility in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The resolution notes the car's designer and driver, Southside Virginia's history with stock car racing, and that the project is part of Virginia's celebration of the nation's 250th anniversary. It does not create any new law or spending.
