Thanks for posting that, Wil. It looks like it would be an amazing facility. I'm all for parks such as this to minimize wildcat racing through and across public land.

Fantastic idea - we need one down here in southern AZ, too.

I was wondering when someone would get smart. I've been griping to our radical environmentalist acquaintances who fight many land use battles to go "pro-active" (I hate that word) and lobby to put in some ATV tracks to help get them out of areas that are more approprate to slow exploration than racing around like hamster!

We'll certainly offer our support to this.

Mototrax has been "in the works" for like 6 years now. I'll believe it when I see it.
