Nice track even though there's Red Bud already in the state... I don't know if enough parking...

Been there multiple times and easily my favorite track. It's perfect for a national. It's wide, great sand, huge jumps and great spectating.

Not nearly enough parking to host a National. They would have to rent or purchase a farm field across the street to make it possible. On top of that, the township is not moto-friendly, and a few years ago I had heard the owners kid could only ride there on scheduled ride days, even though they live on the property.

^^This^^
Parking and logistics for a national would be a debacle unless they did something drastically different. It's crazy on a holiday weekend race with a few thousand people. Would love to see Pat get a National race though!

Side note. Comments are hilarious. Sped up! Lol...Earl hauls ass!

I grew up 4 miles from there and was there most weekends in the 90s. not enough parking. track would need some work to make it worth while.

I say bring back Kenworthys... that was nice.

Baja is legit though and super rough deep sand whoops build up. Been there for a LL regional. A national there would be really awesome. Parking is limited is all. Besides that plenty calable track wise

Parking is weird, and you cant see most of the track unless you walk to the top near the fly away step down

The baja brawl takes up the whole parking lot plus more.... They would need to replace the kids track with more parking to qualify for a national track

That looks like a dream facility to live near as a weekend warrior but way to small for a National. Great place to host the full LL program though.

That kid in the video flat landed the shit out of the first tabletop after the start. It hurt just watching it. Cool track though.

What needs a bigger pit area?

LLs or a National?

I'll second, third and fourth the notion for a National at Baja...love that place. been good to me in the past and would like to be there again as a spectator watching a National.

Michigan is a hotbed for Moto and the RedBud turn-out is very decisive in proving that.

i believe Pat secured the property across the road for parking at one time...or had some deal worked out if indeed a national option came his way...thats the rumor a few years ago. I imagine if they got a chance, they would find a way to make it work.

I agree, i grew up racing baja...tis my home track. outside of redbud, they are the next capable track in the region....and the bottom of the track is black dirt/clay with the top half being full on sand hill whoops for days.
