The MX track at High Point traverses two hill sides and drops down into the valley which makes for a great natural terrain outdoor track.
The track has plenty of high speed uphills and downhills and some awesome step up jumps that aren't for the weak of heart.

Giovanni Colon Ramos, Pureto Rico's Champion, made his first trip to race a GNC National in America. The nineteen year old Giovanni has been racing MX in Pureto Rico for 8 years and has dreamed about racing in the GNC Series for several years, and it almost happened last year until he broke his arm, which prevented the trip.
Media Allstars, Jorge Cuartas, helped cooridinate the arrival of Giovanni.
Giovanni Qualified for the Pro Class Main, which made for an even more exciting Father's Day Weekend.
The 450R Giovanni raced was brand new on Thursday and Elka Suspension, JB Racing, Douglas Wheels, Maxxis, DG Products, and many others donated their products to Giovanni to build into a race ready machine for the weekend. After spending all day Thursday assembling the quad Giovanni rode the 450R for the first time on Friday for Practice, which didn't give him much seat time on his new quad for the weekend.
Giovanni's Father was extremely proud of his Son!
