To all of you short track mxer's out there, how much different is the short area style tracks from regular outdoor mx tracks? and where is the place to pass/make up the most time...the corners look a little too tight to pass

Im at a motor disadvantage in my class, so im always working my way from the back. I almost always pass in the corners. Just gotta take a different line than the guy in front. The starts are everything at the fair races and arena tracks in the tri-state. Get a good start and you should finish up front

Sam I actually think we raced him. I think he was the one with the red 450r that they staggered us with.

The arenacross I ran last year they made the track pretty wide. It wasn't hard to pass on at all. I'm sure you will have a good time.

It was a well built track.......for bikes. Every track your going to race on is going to prolly be based for bikes. It was a typical fair track. The arenacross at DuQuoin last year had wide corners and plenty of room to race side by side.
