| image-size = 200px | image-alt = The 2009 Goody's Fast Pain Relief 500 was held on March 29, 2009 at Martinsville Speedway in Ridgeway, Virginia. It was the sixth race of the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. The winner was Jimmie Johnson, who led 42 laps, followed by Denny Hamlin and Tony Stewart in second and third place.

There were no time trials because of rain during the previous days. A live audience of 63,000 attended the event, which lasted three hours and 27 minutes. Last-place finisher Todd Bodine quit on lap 3 due to engine problems. Robby Gordon, Joe Nemechek and Dave Blaney also failed to finish. 13% of the race was run under caution; the average green flag run lasted about 33 laps. Most of the incidents that brought out the yellow flag were crashes. Five drivers failed to qualify, including Sterling Marlin, Tony Raines and Dennis Setzer.

Jeff Gordon often battled Denny Hamlin and Clint Bowyer for the lead. Gordon finished fourth and Bowyer finished fifth.
