Entering year number eleven at the helm of the Middlebourne oval, the Hometown Racing Association prides itself on fast, affordable fun for the entire family and the 2023 schedule is no different. Since opening in June 1974, the Tyler County Speedway has been a favorite among racers and fans throughout the Mountain State and Mid-Ohio Valley region. America’s Baddest Bullring, is well-known among its peers for its high-banked exciting track configuration, three- and four-wide racing action, highly competitive divisions, a diverse special event lineup of races second to none and, most impor- tantly, a loyal die-hard fan base. The 2023 season at the Bullring will be one for the ages as the speedway will set course for “Super September,” a huge month of monumental money. Starting off by playing host to its traditional Labor Day weekend, Sept. 1-3, with the oldest dirt late model major event, the 55th Annual Hillbilly 100 featuring the Lucas Oil Dirt Car Series and paying the winner $30,000 with a total purse exceeding $100,000.
