Great video!, I live close to Bart Hartman and Donnie Moran they were great racers!, along with Barts dad Butch!. Now I root for Donnies boy Devin Moran he does pretty good!.
A great track a great saction great field of drivers a great time in wv the only time better was the pennsboro wvms weekend and 99 sweep it a great time period then today all of dirt motorsports is out of touch
With out help from the tower ouch did he really say that Freddie you should be ashamed of your self for accepting help from the tower shame shame shame yes I'm going to edit this I'll be dam it's been a long history of that behavior
I have had the pleasure as a fan to meet Bloomquist and Smith...... both class acts and awesome!!! I got autographs at Brownstown speedway both were awesome as well as Boggs! They all seemed to care about the fans!! Moyer....... a line at his stand where he never showed up!! To this day I have zero respect for Moyer!
that was 1996, this is 2017-18 since all late model engines are push rod V-8s and are big small blocks,ts, Ford,and Mopar and GM... wonder what would happen if teams ran a Toyota push rod V-8 ....?
After watching the start I immediately remembered why this track failed....its a train...no close racing. I believe it wasnt too long after this that M Smith and his dad went to prison.
I have to agree with Kevin. I went to WVMS prob 8-9 times in the 90’s for big events (Pennsboro weekend, HaT, STARS, and a dreadful ARCA race). The racing surface and facility was beautiful (I loved the tiered grass backstretch seating) but the racing was spread out and usually had a bunch of cautions and attrition.
Geez… it was actually several years later as in 13 yrs later and what does that have to do with anything Kevin??? Not a thing to do with racing so what’s the point bringing that up? You’re a sad individual to even make a comment like that … I feel sorry for you
My grandfather was a CES employee, and brother in law to Bub Smith. M,E.B&B went to jail in 06. My grandfather was put in charge of the company by the feds during that time, and ran the succeeding company (MSE) for 12 years. He's retired now, E.B and Michael are the only two left. Larry died a few years back and bub passed about two months ago.

Real dirt track racing from real hero's
I was at this race. my first of many to WVMS. So glad to hear that it is re-opening in 2021 !!
I think I was at this one as well. I remember being at WVMS when Steve Shaver got injured in a crash.
Great video!, I live close to Bart Hartman and Donnie Moran they were great racers!, along with Barts dad Butch!. Now I root for Donnies boy Devin Moran he does pretty good!.
Great drivers! Thank you for sharing.

After watching several of these old HaT TV races, I can say without a doubt their broadcast team is the worst, most ignorant of the sport ever. Egads.
Any coverage is better than no coverage. Glad they got to record these races for posterity.
"Rockridge Baths." Sounds Exfoliating.

This is coming from a Gill fan! They were awesome!
WV motor speedway is reborn as of 2022
I want to go there someday.
Well as of now. It’s still closed and currently for sale
When Hartman raced at WVMS, everybody else was racing for second. He ruled that place for years.
Maybe when Bloomquist didn't show up.
Jack Boggs says Hello
didnt know Butch Hartman had kin carrying on family legacy until today, heckuva way to find out, I LIKE IT
So sad,this is what i grew up on in the 80's ...all but gone
Its coming back 2021
that was 1996, this is 2017-18 since all late model engines are push rod V-8s and are big small blocks,ts, Ford,and Mopar and GM... wonder what would happen if teams ran a Toyota push rod V-8 ....?
We may see that one day but doubtful until dirt track goes fuel injection! Great insight though but still years away I’m afraid
Kenny wallace uses a toyota v8 in his dirt modified
no boggs
cool stuff thanks for posting.
I haven't been down there in many years. West Virginia Motor Speedway still open? Is it still dirt?
Looks like it's been closed a for a few years from what I've found on the internet.
white really it's closed. That sucks
It looks like it hasn't been open in 10 years or more
@@adamwatson6473 was the mid to late 90s when I was there last. If I remember correctly I was probably at this race
Its coming back 2021

Have you ever been there?? If not shut it ,this video shows nothing..it was never a train race
@@msmith5069 Yes. I live about 15 miles from it. It definitely was a train. Very boring.
