Track

The track was built by Elite Trax Inc and Tom Ritzenthaler on 2011. This year Tom Ritz made an extraordinary work rebuilding and redesigning the jumps and turns in around 70 % of the track. The iconic Double Start Ramps were built out of concrete. One of them is 6m high for the challenger classes and the other one, the tallest with 8m high for the Supercross class, all in accordance with de UCI rules. The concrete surface provides to the riders a very fast surface with a better grip than the other start ramps made of wood. Both starting ramps are equipped, with the latest "Pro Gate" start gate system.
