After reading the comments about senic highlands I starting thinking about the tracks that I used to ride at ten plus years ago. I only raced senic once and my first thought was how big the track was! But you also can't forget the hill climb just to get into the place. Anyways.. How many of you guys remember beachwood trails or hangtime raceway in Norwalk? Does anyone have any pics of these tracks? Back when I was racing all the time we video taped all of our races but never a practice. As far as I can remember I don't think these places hosted any races. If they did for some reason I never made it out to a race.
Recently deceased tracks.

If you are old enough you will also remember racing at Norwalk Raceway Park. Yes, the drag strip had a motocross track.

The one out by Salinesville was Pleasant Ridge I think. Spring Valley and Spokes were great too.

If it's the same place you're thinking. That SX track around Portsmouth that ran back in the late 80's was awesome. That place would be packed with spectators, as there was nothing else to do around there. Remember they sold beer and you'd occasionally see a fight. Good times! I have some photos from me racing an 89 YZ 125 in day-glo pink Sinisalo gear. I need to find those.
I remember this one. Just this past Sunday (sitting at Malvern) I was telling my wife how there were 2 tracks at Malvern when we were kids. I liked that Saturday night track.
Another track that never had the greatest MX but was always on the schedule when I was a kid was Grand Prix Raceway. Whatever happened to that place? They actually had good harescrambles there.

No they closed it again. Since my family sold it, it has changed hands two times. Both owners have cut trees and not did anything to the track. Super sad for me since I all but grew up there. Wish we still had it.
I was out by where Frankfort us to be not that long ago. We went to some small rinky dink dirt track to watch paint dry... oh, I mean car races. Could not remember where it was, thought it was in like a park or something..
