      Track looks tiny. Car snags infield tire and the Official Hookers come to the rescue.

        Have to say the facility looks great. Really hope it's successful. Gonna be a long night tho. To be expected. Nobody knows anything yet. Love to see somebody venture off the bottom and let er eat on the berm.

          i think moving the first 3 tires inside turns 1-2 and all 4 tires inside 3-4 out a tire width would improve the racing as well as banking the exits of turn 2 & 4 up high more. good lights and plenty of seating for sure. tyler c won, freddie c ran 2nd

            Car count and crowd that greatly exceeded expectations. Track held together all night. The Hurleys should be commended on all they accomplished in a short amount of time. Good to see a nice facility reopen.

              I hope it works out for them long term. The track
              size is MUCH better for the area they are in.

                  Nice opener for the joint and they ran a pretty good show, especially with the huge car and spectator counts. Didn't think any of the Late Models would ever quit the catfish route but the Carpenters weren't afraid to try it up higher. Tip of the hat to the Hurleys and wish them much success.

                    In my area of the world I really wish the people in charge of Shawano (Wis) Speedway would take a look at this. Half-mileitis has been giving that place a slow death.

                    Good for WVMS ! It looks like they had a very successful kickoff with the new configuration. All the best to them going forward.
                    Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.

                      Didn't make it to any of the features as I broke my dry sump belt around 10:30. Loaded my arse up into the bed.

                            Congrats to the new track owners. WOW. What an opening night. Just curious, what time did the final feature race get the checkered flag? Anyone know?

                              I had enlarged that aerial photo and counted haulers/trailers and quit at 100. That was a full house.
