Default How do you build a Track

Me and my friends bought about 10 acres of land. We want to build a race track. Does anyone know how to build it. I mean how should it be shaped. I know a circle is a good way or go up jumping and then turn aroung and go down. but i want a professional Atv track. I own a construction company and i know how to build jumps im just wandering what kind of shape it should be and how long?

There is no right answer to your question, it's however you want it to look. 10 acres is not a lot of land so you are going to have to build somewhat of a supercross type track. You can do a search under supercross. They always show the layout of the tracks. That should give you some kind of idea.

I used to have the web address for the guys (dirtworxs?) that build all the supercross tracks. All the track layouts are show graphically. I just can't find it (the link) now. They have a section on building yer own track too. It's a very informative site.

Edit: You can do quite a bit w/ (10) acres w/o making it a supercross-like track.

you could make two completely different 5 acre tracks and at one turn make it to where you can switch tracks that way you can have a short race or a long race. just a suggestion.

I started working on one and found out after the first preview that it wouldn't work - I feel your pain.
