NASCAR’s race in Texas next month will be the NRA 500.

The National Rifle Association’s spot as title sponsor was announced Monday.

The April 13 race will not be the NRA’s first title sponsorship.

Last September the NRA was the title sponsor in Atlanta.

The NRA has been a partner of Speedway Motorsports Inc. for several years, according to TMS president Eddie Gossage.
