Great photos and story's guys, I love this stuff!!!!
this is the old Hangtown race in Plymouth Ca, south of where its held now at the Prarie city Ohv park. Im too young to have been there but my dad tells me how it was quite sandy, which is much different than most of Cali's clay based tracks.
A few years back I remember talking to Dave Coupe, he had visited the site to try to get a one off race going out there but it never materialized due to the current owner

It was known as the PAL track (Police Activities League). Here's a video of it:

Today, Dell Computer and Hortonworks occupy the space:
After it got shut down, the guy who ran it went on to open up a track about 40 miles away which continues to run open practice to this day.
Lake Whitney
Mosier Valley
Luckily, a local moto store stepped up to the plate, leased the property, and had Dirt Wurx build a pretty cool new track.
VDR is dead, long live Berthoud Moto Park
The interesting part about this facility being sponsored by a moto store is that they cater to what they sell.
In addition to the moto and kid tracks you'd expect, they also have a quad and side by side track (to be further segregated into 2 tracks from what I heard)
I hope they make it. It is only 20mn from my house. I just hope they also add a flat track.
Pit Row
Got a hell of a workout at that track
Perfect Oklahoma dirt
I loved that place
Just wish I had the skill and balls to jump that tunnel jump like Robbie
59th and Douglas. It could re-open to this day as far as the land is concerned.
Cooperland was awesome. The sat pics show water where the canyon rhythm sections where what a shame. Miss that place. BTW, Cooper never owned the 500. It is owned and operated by the city but Coop and family have been an integral part over the years
A little trivia. These two photos below are of the same track one photo closer than the other. Saw epic battles of Cooper and Palmer, Emig and Jimmy Gaddis, etc. Anyone remember this place?
Track grew on me over the years, and I hate that I didn't get to race there more than I did. I believe Hank Moree's family might have owned the track. Moree was once a top amateur(team green?) and rival of Damon Bradshaw.
A group of us would always sneak off to Larry Wards SX track on the property and ride bmx bikes once our motos were over. Also remember watching some epic battles between Ward and local pros like Jim Neese over the years. One off-season Ward showed up on what looked to be a fully prepped Honda of Troy bike and several of us were drooling all over it. I could go on and on about that place. Good times.
