I am trying to find the location of an old school BMX track in Lake Elsinore, California. This track used to hold ABA super nationals in the 1980's. It was located in Lake Elsinore, CA. I googled it trying to see where it was located to no avail. There are lots of pictures and videos of the track. I even located a map of the track online. I can tell from one of the pictures, that it was near the lake (Lake Elsinore). Maybe someone reading this post raced there or maybe has an old BMX magazine that had the address/directions to the track. I am guessing the track is no longer there and razed to the ground to prevent people from trying to ride there. I still want to know where it was.

I know this is a MX forum. I did post this question on a BMX forum, but the thread went cold, so that's why I posted here.

Also, I don't expect this track to be there. Probably has houses there now. Jeremy McGrath used to race there and a few other moto guys.

My friend said they tore it down to build the Kmart and movie theater in the 80s. Kmart building is now the bowling alley. So Mission Trail and Malaga

Was just informed that was the second location. Was next to the lake first. I'll let you know if I get the exact first location.

I started racing BMX there in 1985/86.... it was one of the coolest tracks... the first double was a bitch after the first burm,  I remember racing a Triple and Woody Itson was there racing for Hutch, ( I raced a Hutch Pro Star) and it was such a cool track and time of life.     they ended up tearing the track down and putting a flipping Casino there......

I remember the bikes Titan, PK Ripper, Banditos, Kuwahara, Proline, Hutch.....

 

And that's when the 20 inchers started coming into play...... fucking miss the mid-80s man
