Dehoop has some photos of a wooden track with wooden whoops in europe. He rode a TM with slick tires. I believe he won.

Dont remember what country it was, but some were called Hardcross. There are some great videos on Youtube.
This one was in the related vids. Check out all the top names of the time.

The announcer dude is hilarious. Healey fell in love, got Married, and lost his steam! LMFAO

I'm not sure who's crazier in that first video, the riders, or that lunatic in the suit standing in front of the starting gate...

I raced one of those. Used road racing slicks.

The only good thing was that we didn’t get dirty.

That race is like a moto version of Thunderdome. There’s no way in hell it would happen today. Laughing

The announcer is Jack Burnical, a guy who knows Motocross inside and back to front... his knowledge is incredible...
