Less than a month remains before Tyler County Speedway hosts the inaugural Bullring Bonanza May 25-26, and all systems are on go for the biggest event in the history of the quarter-mile oval in Middleburg, W.Va.
The two-day megaevent on Memorial Day weekend will culminate with Saturday’s $25,000-to-win Jackpot 100 for the World of Outlaws Late Model Series, but there will be plenty of other festivities to keep fans entertained throughout the entire weekend.
Along with concerts by country music acts Craig Morgan and the Davisson Brothers Band, the weekend offers great food, camping and the chance for fans to win more than $700,000 in cash and prizes all while helping to raise money for the Tyler County Firefighters Association. Bullring Bonanza details:

Each of the 10,000 general admission tickets has a four-digit number.
