I have a 400EX and am thinking about starting to race it. I drag race with it already. Is there any good tracks in PA were a begginer could go to start out racing? Marineville isn't that far from me but is that a good place for someone to start out at? Also would it hurt to run a pretty much stock 400EX with some motor work? Thanks for any info.

that track ur are talkin about is fox race way one of the members here hetricks330s uncle owns the track... i am gonna race district 5 this year with some motor mods and a stock frame parts.... here are the tracks that are in district 5 that are close to u

1. pleasure valley in armagh (cernics suzuki hondas track)
2. steel city in delmont pa (davey combs race track also mike jones)
3. challenger its out side of indiana pa
4. field of dreams race way its in boswell pa (brad berkys track)
5. mt morris its in mt morris pa national track
6. brownsville raceway its in brownsville pa


i think thats all... some of the towns may not be spelled right i don't have map here to look up the names... they all run the district 5 summer series and are ama sanctioned places... the best track of them all is steel city by far but thats bc its a national pro motocross track... mayb we can meet up at the races... heres a few pics of the tracks the top 2 is field of dreams and the bottom one is steel city...
