Two Separate Tracks
Both tracks were rebuilt and upgraded in 2022, and both get worked on between every event.
From Manchester To The Gate Drop
If you are hunting for a motocross track near Manchester, McLarty MX Park is a couple of hours on the road away in Horton, Alabama. Close enough for most riders in Coffee County to load the bike after breakfast and still get a full day of laps.

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.
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.
Prepped Before You Roll In
The track is watered and ripped before gates open, and it gets worked through the day on race days.
You Can See The Whole Thing
The layout sits in an open field, so from most spots in the pits you can watch about 70 percent of the track. Parents love it.
