Dirt That Holds Up All Day
Most Southeastern tracks pick one problem: dust by noon, or hardpack by afternoon. The blend here does neither. The shavings hold water, the clay holds shape, and the track keeps its character right through the last session.

Planning The Trip From Jacksonville
A normal ride-day drive from Jacksonville. Leave early enough to sign in without rushing and you will get a full day of laps out of it.

On The Gate
Riders, Parents And Spectators
Bring the family. From most spots in the pits you can watch something like seventy percent of the track, which is exactly what a parent wants when their nine year old is out there.
Lines For Every Skill
Big enough for A riders, forgiving enough for a nine year old on a 65. Everybody gets a lap that suits them.
Two Separate Tracks
Both tracks were rebuilt and upgraded in 2022, and both get worked on between every event.

Questions From Jacksonville Riders
How far is McLarty MX Park from Jacksonville, AL?
The park is at 4015 County Highway 35 in Horton, Alabama, roughly 45 miles southeast of Jacksonville in a straight line. Because of the river and the lake, the road route can be noticeably longer - the map on this page shows the real driving distance and time from Jacksonville.
Is there a motocross track near Jacksonville?
McLarty MX Park is the one most Jacksonville riders end up at. It is a comfortable morning drive away in Horton, with two prepped sandy loam tracks and announced race and practice days.
Can spectators see the whole track?
Just about. The track sits in an open field, so from most spots in the pits you can see around seventy percent of the layout.
Is the park open every weekend?
No. We open on announced dates only. Check the schedule page before you load up - it lists every date we have on the books along with any weather notices.
What kind of dirt is the track?
Sandy loam - Alabama red clay mixed with our own blend of wood shavings. It holds moisture, keeps traction, and stops the track turning into a dust bowl.
