Hows the track lay out? Is the jumps hitable on a quad. Is it worth driving an 1 hour to get there. Thanks guys

I haven't raced there yet but I watched some of the quad races last winter. Its a better track to practice on for a quad. It was too narrow for racing. They changed the layout but I haven't seen it.

if you type it in on youtube you can get an idea. the jumps looked to be VERY do-able on a quad

ive been there a few times and they change the track a few times or more since they opened. at first it was pretty technical but i guess the new track layout is the best. im going today to ride so ill let you know what i think.

Its not the cheapest place to race. Its over 100 bucks just to do your first race. Then something like 45 bucks to do the next races after. I think I could wait for spring haha.

Yeah the track was pretty sweet today my buddy on the ktm 525 xc was doing supermans over the big stepup. In the winter it's 45 bucks plus tax. And we can only ride from 2 to 8 on sun rotating with the bikes. Kinda gay. I think we only got 5 20min sessions.

Did you have to pay that membership fee? I heard its almost 100 for a membership then another 45 to race. Is it just 45 and thats it?

its like 47 something to practice from 2-8. no membership fee just to practice is needed. if you buy the membership thats $100 then its only like $30 a time to practice... so if your going a lot then it pays.

Shoot me a pm if your goin out there sometime and i'll head out. Maybe get a little film session going.

It's a nice place, but imo they don't deserve 1 more cent of my money, not if they treat us quad riders as second class citizens. P!ss on em :ermm:

I couldn't agree more. Can't wait for the weather to get warm and get back to meadow valley and some tracks that don't **** on quads.

I'll be here until at least next fall. Im on a yfz and im not sure how much racing i'll get into, mostly just track practice and getting in shape for the ramps. But let me know when your going out to the track.


As far as the sandbox only allowing quads on sunday... its dumb but i realized where they were coming from. Go there and at the end of the night when you have to wait 20 minutes for 1 single kid on a 50 to get your turn. you want to punch something. haha. When only one or two quads show up and you have 100 guys on bikes waiting for them it just doesnt seem right. Its actually a decent turnout on sundays and its nice to ride with a lot of other fo wheelas.
