Got a couple pics that were sent to me of the track since it's been rebuilt. Sorry for late post and lack of quantity. I'll try to get more.

Great track! The new back section is awesome! I dont ride anymore but I like to take pics on race days. The last time I shot there I really regretted selling the bike. The new design is awesome!

I actually work at the nuke plant Cigaro is talking about. You can hear the bikes from the plant.

You can hear the "humm" of the plant while camping.

Throw some picks up of that back section if you got any. I haven't been down there in 6 years.

I raced there one time. I sketched me out due to its proximity to a nuclear plant. At the riders meet they said dont walk in the woods you might get arrested.

I was there today for practice. The new layout is light years better than before. Great dirt, a bunch of cornors you can lay it over and crank it on. Multiple lines everywhere. And did I mention the dirt?

I'm a guard there. We had a kid get lost in the woods one time. He jumped a fence and walked up to one of our guards in the back 40. Scared the crap out of him!! Lol!

I don't have a pic of the actual track but it's a downhill, sweeping left hander that runs up to an uphill double, double. It looks so fun!!

They don't race there every Sunday like they used to. Pretty much just the Nuke series, and maybe a couple others. The Halloween race is coming up.

K.. I was just trying to get a guess on if the track was bigger. 1:12's to 1:15's I believe they were running last time I raced it back in 92-93. Pinch Hopefully laps and track is longer now.
