cloeter Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Can you please help me, I have about 300 acres of land and want to develop a couple of good quad racing tracks, an enduro track, mx track and a flat track, but I want examples of tracks. Is there a site or anything on the net which have examples of tracks or track plans, anything. Thanx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PolyKarbon Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Where do you live with all that land? If you live near me, I'll build you a track if you give me a lifetime free membership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton eyed Joe Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Go rent Excite Bike. Seriously, just plot it out to scale on some paper, or on a CAD system if someone has one that will work. MasterCAM will let you design anything anysize really. All you need is a masterplan on what will go where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotulMonsta Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Building a good track isn't easy nor cheap. Not only do you have to have the land, but a good track has good drainage and irrigation. Plus the upkeep and maint...time consuming. The local track that I used to ride all the time up in Crofton Ky was always being changed and worked on but it was open 7 days a week unless there was a race that weekend. Alot of the good tracks don't open to the public as the public will tear it up and present a larger liability to the land owner. Now with that said, If I ever get enough land, You'll be damn shure I'm going to build me (key word ME) one bad ass track to play on...and only my closest friends will be able to ride it...god forbid some pimply teenage punk crashed and breaks his arm or dies and I'm stuck with a lawsuit.

tithead Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 im just starting on the plans of building a track. i race mx, a got the chairman of the club to come and have a look and is comming with a couple of the brittish pro riders and a track designer to see what can be done. steep hills, jumps and good strates are fun! a couple of long corners and loads of short corners add to the fun. i own the land that the track is getting built on but make sure that your neighbours dont have a problem first, cos if they complain you wont hear the end of it! this is the second track im builing now and im hoping to have a 3rd at the middle of next year for the pro season racers. the first 1 that i built is used as a practice track and is used for racing for smaller clubs. get an arial photo of the land that you want the track to be and as cotton eyed joe said, use CAD to plan it out. that helps alot! over here people are looking at tracks to race on that are about 2 mins a lap.......i dont no what you guys have for time limits over there....perhaps some1 could tell me for my new track??? if you need help on design give me a shout, ill help you no props. tithead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
