Title: Lookin For Help Beginning Post by: RaptorRidin on September 09, 2010, 05:07:50 PM Hey guys!
My name's Andrew and I live in Tampa. I have the 2005 Yamaha Raptor 350se and I want to know if there are any places out there with "open to the public" tracks. Places where a guy wanting to race (yours truly) can get acquainted with the feel of a real track, the corners, jumps, etc. If anyone has any advice I would really appreciate any information I can get. I usually ride at Rancho if anyone rides there, we could meet up some Saturday. Thanks for your time, guys, Andrew Title: Re: Lookin For Help Beginning Post by: shogun323 on September 09, 2010, 05:13:58 PM Yo man. Hit up East Bay Motocross. They have a quad night every Wednesday from 7 - 10. Riders from all skill levels go. Its a great track in Riverview area of Tampa.

You need to check out Dirty Foot Mud Ranch www.dirtyfootmudranch.com (http://www.dirtyfootmudranch.com)
they have a beginners mx track, oval track and drag strip. They also have 30+ miles of trails......1800 acres. 4 times what rancho has. They also have running water, a zip line, rope swings and a swim hole. We go every other week now and HAVE A BLAST every time!!!! btw...welcome to atvflorida.com Title: Re: Lookin For Help Beginning Post by: jayman on September 09, 2010, 05:19:15 PM if you have facebook you can go to their site Dirty Foot Mud Ranch for tons of pictures and videos of the trails, mx track and drag strip

Jay: what city is DFMR in? I'm in Seffner, but obviously Rancho is in Zephyrhills area so I don't mind a drive to go crazy (: If you have facebook, could you add me? I won't always be on ATVF but I'm usually on FB. Thanks guys Title: Re: Lookin For Help Beginning Post by: jayman on September 09, 2010, 05:24:54 PM my FB is Geno Stopowenko

Yep. It is open to everyone. They are a new track in town. Mike does a great job. The costs are: $15 one time membership fee (good through December) $10 gate fee $10 ride fee After you get the membership it is $20 to ride and every 10th time is free. It is comparable to other track prices around. Bartow MX is cheaper but you get what you pay for LOL. If you come Wednesday make sure you find me.
