Title: Bartow MX track
Post by: Lost Soul on June 08, 2005, 08:49:59 AM
Hey Guys:

Does anyone have directions to the Bartow MX track?

Also if you know the hours and what days they allow quad practice, it would be helpful.

Thanks

Lost Soul

They're open today and tomorrow from 4pm to 10pm. Saturdays and Sundays from 9am to 4pm. It's off of Highway 60 to State road 555. Once on 555 make a right onto Centinnial Rd/Blvd (something like that) It's at the end of that road on the left.

Luis,  Hopefully I will be there tommorrow night too.  My stock oil tank on my EX decided to get a crack in it tonight when I was changing the oil.  >:( I am going to try and see if a radiator shop will weld it up for me tommorrow.  I hope to see you there.

Lost soul:  Bartow motocross is just on the west side of Bartow on HWY 60.  If you are coming from Tampa, it is on the right just before the Chevrolet dealership.  Turn into the USX industrial park and follow that road straight into Bartow motocross.  $20 to ride if you are not a member.

yeah, me too.  I recently learned that EX oil tanks have problems with coming apart.  Honda uses epoxy to put those things together. ???  I am just glad that it didn't happen during a scramble.

The only thing that smurf is going to see is the bottom of my quad as it goes overhead.  If the weld job is not good, the smurf might get oil in his eyes. ;D

I don't want to sound like a panzie but, is this track good for novices, or is it for the hard core only? 

Is Thursday practice riding, or racing?

Anyone going this Thursday?
