Sometime this summer or fall I am going to have a full scale racing track with lots of jumps and whoops on a piece of land I own, and aside from the licenses and such required I was wondering if any of you racers have any suggestions so I can make a good track. Any responses are appreciated. Thanks

 

1 suggestion, move it to New Hampshire. I need more places to practice. Seriously though just make it so it's rideable for you and the people that are going to be using it.

 

Make it rideable, exctiting, and thrilling. Have some hairpins with big birms you can ride on. Corners with no birm, but with one whoop that goes from the bottom all the way to the outside. Make some tabletops and and doubles and triples. Include this and it should be rideable, exciting, and thrilling at the same time.

 

Make it so when you race you have a blast ridin on it. I would put some big *** jumps i it like some doubles and tripples (if you can clear them).

 

Don't make it rideable!!
Make it hard, with <u>a little</u> easy jumps (short tabletops righ after a hairpin, for example), but lots of very challenging jumps (camels, doubles/triples, big tabletops), especially if thre same people keep coming back. The worst thing is when you ride twice on a track and clear all obstacles. There has to be challengig things that make you proud when you clear them...other than that, the most beautiful MX traks I've seen (in Provence...south France...I was living within an hour of 6 MX track...and 2 were international tracks...) were 2/3 outdoor (natural obstacles -hillclimbs, curves between trees, small jumps...etc...not difficult, but rally enjoyable when riding fast through), an the remaining more like an SX track, with doubles, tabletops, tight turns, more technical...and tiring!
I especially enjoyed straighaways with a slight curve in them...I always passed people there...chcanes ar also good for passing...don't make it tight

 

Thanks everyone. Does anyone know any professional track designers? If I could get some plans for a good looking and fun track I would be grateful. Thanks for all the help
