Lol!!!! This has actually been planned for a while. Track reopens tomorrow I believe. Might have to make something work so I can ride this weekend! $5 to get in and it's right down the road from my house! Been looking forward to them changing it up a bit. It's been the same for quite a while now so I stopped going.

No spark arrestor needed on the 'track' part?

If that's the track I think it is, I remember when it opened in 85/86. Jim "Bones" raced. Good to see.

It's a state facility, so shouldn't be affected by the shutdown.

Yes, Hungry Valley is the technical name of the OHV area.

Quail Canyon is the name of the MX track area.

Gorman is the name of the closest little town.

I raced it on 60's with Cole Seely. It was fun back then. Now that I live so close, it would be nice to still have there. Shane was doing Race Around the Lake gp's there but I think that finally got the boot. Wish he still did it though.

Good buddy of mine went today and text me this on his way home. He’s a solid 50+ pro rider and usually not very critical of tracks.


Rode Gormon today, the new track. It Suck Balls bad, we gave him (builder guy) notes to hopefully to make it better. Should have left it alone!

Pretty much the same footprint just going The other way. One nice new off-camber turn ? Seems like the flow is going to be good once the jump faces And landings on work in. Going back tomorrow.

It has been a long time since I was there but the track was GTG without a spark arrestor, outside the track boundaries required a spark arrestor.

That’s before the state took over back in like 2012. Ever since the state took over a spark arrester has been required

I agree with the guy that said it sucks balls. They really F##cked it up. Not even worth the $5 anymore.

Other than a few sketchy jumps since the track isn't maintained I'd say it's okay, but probably worth the entry fee and drive to go up to LACR.
