Could rocky top be extended to make it longer? the lip is so awsome, but I always overshoot it[my fault, not the tracks] I think since there is plenty of room, that it would be awsome to make it 20ft longer or so. Also, after rockytop, there is the right turn... It goes into S turn... I thought of this when I was out at the track. Insted of going left and right again where there are two huge useless berms that nobody hits unless they want to throw alot of roost up, that we make it a double :-D I know you would have to fill in the gap a little bit and straighten the face and landing alot...but that would be so cool! The face would need to be a little shorter and longer and there would need to be a defined landing. Or after that S turn, where there is a small jump that you get 6 inches off the ground in 3rd pinned on a 250.. Make that a table top or step up about the size of the one after the camel back. Just ideas...I like jumps....who doesnt

All good ideas, but the S turn is there to slow down that straight away. I agree that the two berms are useless as far as riding goes, but they are there to keep people from doing exactly what you are suggesting - cutting the turns out. When changes are made to the track, you also have to keep the little guys in mind. They are not riding 250's and bigger jumps would just mean more hills to roll (or case). I don't think any major changes will be made to the track any time soon. Right now we are focusing on maintaining what we have.

AMEN to that Ryan. I’m sure someday we will get to the point we can make changes to the track, but like you said... getting and keeping the track ridiable is our goal for now. Mike & Jeff built a burm by hand (some tractor) last night till 10:00 pm. It’s on the cut off section they put in that cuts out the woods. I think we will be racing both tracks with the cut off.
Ryan, Mike said you have done a good job with your tractor. Thanks a bunch!
Jeff has really out done himself too, Thank you Hailey for spending your evenings with him out there. You’re a real champ.

It's a good idea, Jeff,
but...
...we'll need to mount red flashing lights on our helmets to warn the local aircraft! ;D

When you look at that jump you wonder how they built that with a crane maybe?
