Two Separate Tracks
Both tracks were rebuilt and upgraded in 2022, and both get worked on between every event.
Plenty of the bikes in our pits come from Scottsboro and the rest of Jackson County. Getting here is a morning drive, which turns a normal Saturday into a real ride day without eating the whole weekend in windshield time.
Straight-line distance. The map further down shows the real driving route and time from Scottsboro.
This is the sweet spot. Far enough that the track is a destination, close enough that you are not burning the whole day on the road. Most Scottsboro riders make it out and back the same day without thinking twice.
Most riders from Scottsboro come in via US-72 west, then US-431 south. Put the address in your phone and it will take you the rest of the way.
The mix is red clay and wood shavings, and the ratio is ours. What it buys you is a track that still has berms and lines late in the day rather than one worn groove and a cloud of dust.
There is no membership and no pre-registration. Show up on an announced date, sign in, pay, and go ride. Just confirm the date first, because we are not open every week.
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.

The track is watered and ripped before gates open, and it gets worked through the day on race days.
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.
The park is at 4015 County Highway 35 in Horton, Alabama, roughly 40 miles northeast of Scottsboro 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 Scottsboro.
McLarty MX Park is the one most Scottsboro 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.
Mini E and 51cc through 65, 85, Supermini, Schoolboy, Girls, Women, 250, Open, College Boy and the 25, 35 and 45 plus classes. The exact list for a given weekend depends on the series running.
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.
No. Pit bike riding is not permitted anywhere on the property. That rule gets enforced.
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.
