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
This is not an experts-only track. Beginner classes like Youth D exist for a reason, and the layout is forgiving enough for a kid learning while still being big enough for A riders to hold it open.
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.
