(Middlebourne, WV) Competitive racing with potential for all racers to rise to a winning level has long been the mantra of the FASTRAK sanction. The Tyler County Speedway’s high banked quarter mile could be used as the poster child for that credo as 11 different winners in the 14 FASTRAK sanctioned events graced ‘The Bullring’s victory lane during the highly competitive 2016 season.

“We are excited to have the opportunity to support Tyler County Speedway, a local track and in addition to sponsoring the FASTRAK Late Model Division, we also sponsor the 23G car of Garrett Jones and the T17 car of Trey Watson. We’d like to wish both of them, as well as all of the drivers at Tyler County Speedway a safe and successful 2017 season” stated Appalachian Mineral Title Company owner Greg Jones.
