Recently got an Autel Evo Lite 640T drone. Also have done some track updates this year and have not ever had an aerial photo of the layout. It is exactly 1/2 mile around one lap. Upper section is mostly a turn track with a 45' table top in the middle. Lower section consists of a 67' double, a step down, 5 table tops , and a rhythm section down the bottom straight. Takes just under 2 mins per lap for me on my 250SX. I had some good riders come down to practice over the last couple of years. Its not real challenging , but its a serious workout with the tight technical sections. It was dry and dusty last week when i flew the drone. The dirt is black when it is wet and prepped. Hope to get some primo track condition pics at some point. If you are in WNC or Upstate SC, hit me up if you want to come ride. I try to get some laps in every Wednesday from 4:30 to 8 or so.

Nice. I grew up in upstate SC - I miss having all that space and privacy sometimes! I can’t even take the top off my Jeep living in an apartment because there’s nowhere to put it lol

How did you come up with the track layout btw? Was there a plan for it, winging it as you went, or you rode on the property enough to develop the flow?

I took years of riding all the tracks around the southeast and thought about what attributes I liked and what I didnt like. Then I saw 100's of Youtube videos and training videos. All had turn tracks mentioned. Built the track and then changed it and had a LOT of dirt brought in. Finally got it the way it will probably stay this past spring. It seems to flow pretty well now.
