Over spring break, we are headed south to North Carolina and Virginia. Can someone recommend some tracks to ride at? I rode at MX 421 in North Carolina last year and I liked it, but I would like to check out other tracks. We are headed down April 15th to April 23rd.

Thanks for any input.

Southfork just south of Richmond, VA is a great track that you can hit on the way down or back. NC has a lot of fun tracks as well: NCMP (when it's prepped...), wide open, hog heaven just to name a few.

Center road and east bend are fun tracks. Both in NC

Silver Valley MX Park is a MUST GO... if it is open. Right now they are closed for renovations (rumored to be installing a starting gate and making some other changes).

Previously they have only been open on Saturdays, but if they are open, you have to go here! It's a new track, still working out the kinks. But it has potential to be one of the best tracks in the southeast!

NCMP When groomed. Cow Branch is always MINT, love that place. Hog Heaven is closed for track rebuild, might be open when you are here. Birch Creek in VA is good

Also they never get much love on the vital forum but Windy Hills in Ellerbe is a good track also

Either multiple options all within 1.5 hours of each other

Hog Heaven has been closed for over a year. Richard Eason is in rehab. Or was. Maybe Dillon (his son) is trying to re-open? If he does, go there.

NCMP is a dump unless its race day. I'd avoid it unless youre into baked out dustbowls. (hey, some people are)

Southfork is a great facility and has a lot of amenities. Track itself is on the beginner end of the spectrum but the dirt is good enough to keep you entertained for a weekend.

Budds Creek has been open practically every day, and is usually prime lately. Beasley needs the cash.

Cowbranch is pretty good. MacClesfield, NC. Similar to Southfork. sort of beginner. not muc hof a facility, but great people, good dirt, just enough to keep you entertained.

Birch Creek is in Sutherlin VA, (near Danville) and that place is awesome. Has an over-under and bright orange clay.

Devils Ridge in NC is supposed to be pretty good but I haven't been.

Not sure what calendar days those are, but I'd hit Budds on the week days, its the only one open during the week. Check Birch's schedule on Facebook, of all the ones I listed, that's the best one.

Devil's ridge is hit or miss. Never know with that place. But I wouldn't go too far out of my way to ride there. They have had the same kicker in the face of the back table top since 2006.

JWTF, Cowbranch, WCMX, 5pts MX, Wide Open, and Hog Heaven when open are some of the best in the eastern NC!

Is Jacksonville MX Park still open? They used to have Wednesday night practice under the lights.

Crystal Coast is good. I think Weinert owns it now and it has a different name.
If you are anywhere nearby, pay Budds a visit!
