Didn't realize they were closed in the first place Grinning

That's pretty cool of them though. I try and avoid Pala on the weekend, its a little too busy for me, I imagine it will be even busier. I'll probably still go and check it out though.

Its not been closed so I don't get whats going on. New owner? Big changes on the track layouts?
Anyone here knows what its all about?

They did have electric and watering issues a few weeks ago but I don't see that as something to have a grand reopening over.

They've also been building that structure on the left as you drive in for a while so maybe it's connected to that?

My bike is still dirty from riding there last week. They redid the vet track a week or two ago. The amateur track has been basically the same for a year. I'm not sure about what's going to be new.

I love the place though. It's 20 minutes away from me. Can't beat that.

Vet track is pretty fun right now, although I'm not sure you can really class it as a vet track any more Laughing

Fox Racing sponsored Pala Raceway. The "Spy" tent is no longer a black structure with a spy logo on it. Its now a "Fox Racing" tent. Rumor is there will be many more events held at the facility, and there are talks of Pala offering bike rentals and such. Also, theres going to be a Fox Racing storefront and shop on site.

A pretty big deal, i just hope the entry fee doesn't increase as a result.

Sweet! Now it makes sense why RD, RC and Reed will be there... all Fox riders!

They only closed for one extra day, today. Opps I forgot to mention I live one day ahead of everyone else. So actually tomorrow for everyone else is when they are closed. My bad.

How fun. If I lived 30 min away I’d go there often. But the dirt there isn’t worth a 2 hr drive

Kinda weird but ok. That place has so much potential any change like this has to be good for it. I'll be there tomorrow. Can't wait to see what's changed.
