Just moved to North Carolina and was just wondering where some tracks are around the Charlotte area or if there is any?

Is 421 MX the old thunder valley? Center Road MX still open? I used to ride at Andrews in Concord but I believe that's closed now, Daniels Ridge, TNT in Chester SC which is closed now too.

Yes to 421MX, it's a newly redesigned track. And yes, Center Road is still open as well.

Two of my favorites even though I haven't been to Iron City in several years, but the pics I've seen recently look awesome.

Zoo City is a little tamed down compared to some of the others as they typically have more Youth riders, but it's still a lot of fun. You can turn some smaller jumps into bigger ones if you so desire. I put on an annual GP race there and it's pretty cool because it shows that everyone from Youth riders to Pro riders and full blown woods riders can handle it.

The Jammers facility is pretty good. There are multiple tracks that are constantly changing. The main track is made to be friendly to most riders. Then there is a more advanced track with some jumps that should keep most vet riders (like me) away. There are also a couple turn tracks and this time of year he usually has an AX track built. Like most of Eastern Carolina, the dirt is soft and sandy.

Lake Sugartree and Birch Creek MX arent too far across the VA state line either.

There is a LOT of moto within a 4 hour drive of Charlotte.

It doesn't get any more legit around here than the practice track at ClubMX in Chesterfield, SC. http://www.clubmx-sc.com/ When you see their facility, you'll be blown away. They open the private tracks to the public a couple times a year (always at their open house every October, and usually a few other times throughout the year).

Iron City in Blacksburg, SC right off I85 has open practice every so often http://www.ironcitymx2.com/contact.html

Wide Open is a bit of a haul, but is a great track http://wideopenmxparkonline.com/

What side of Charlotte are you on?? I'm in South Charlotte not far from Providence Road & I-485

Just remember, drain drain drain this time of year. Doesn't take much rain to floodl a track if not done correctly. If you drain enough for the dirt to run, you will have to chase it and bring back so take your time and have fun. Little different then the West

Al Lane Motorsports there in the Lincolnton area had a pretty solid track called Top Gun that I used to race at.. I know Al Lane is still there but I have clue what ever happened to the track. If you happen to wander into Al Lane's, ask them what's up with Top Gun and report back. Thanks. lol

Silver Creek MX in Morganton, NC has lighting and runs practices/races at night sometimes.. Track is owned by the Bollinger family (Trevor Bollinger = 2016 GNCC XC2 Champion)

from where you live you head a bit north to Eastbend, 421 etc.....

To the east would be zoo city, there is one near me called dirt city but they don't have equipment to prep the track yet.

Club is also a great place to go but the main track is not open to the public. they do have a practice track available to everyone.

if you can take a week off South of the Border is affordable and fun. we have done 3 week long sessions there and its a blast.

if you feel like taking a long drive Outback is down there close to SOB and always open. I Don't know if hog heaven has closed down for good or not but that was an awesome track.

There is a LOT of moto within a 4 hour drive of Charlotte.
and none within 30 min lol ive always wondered why there was not a track closer.

I think the closest to me is CLUB at just about an hour flat.

I will echo what most others have said on here about Club MX. The facility is truly awesome, especially the first time you show up and take it all in. But there are other awesome tracks around Charlotte that are worth the visit. Iron City is a cool track that is a very easy commute down 85. Silver Valley is a new track that I'm pretty sure is in Lexington. That track is incredible as well. Typical Carolina clay that offers great traction and the jumps are big but relatively safe I believe. MX421 was a blast, but haven't been there in a few years.

Yea i actually went into Al Lane Motorsports looking for a job and asked them about the track and they said they closed it down because of an insurance issue of some sort. It sucks because that track looks awesome!

Yea Club MX is a must do, i'll definitely have to spend a weekend down there but Iron city looks like the closet one to me so I'll be trying that track first!
