The Surface

The Reason Riders Keep Coming Back

Alabama red clay on its own goes greasy wet and concrete dry. Cut with wood shavings it does neither, which is how we keep a rideable surface from gates open to the last checkered flag.

More about the track

On The Gate

Who Rides Here

Race days run classes from Mini E and 51cc all the way through 250, Open, Schoolboy, Women, and the Vet classes. American Heroes is free to all first responders and all service men and women.

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.

Prepped Before You Roll In

The track is watered and ripped before gates open, and it gets worked through the day on race days.
