Been working on the pit area now getting ready to start on the MERC track later today. The Supercross track is being extended with a crossover. We are going to roll and pack it soon.
Thanks for the tip Cory. That is a pretty nice track and it's huge. My track is only going to be 40' x 85'. I have the tillers, roller, and packer so I can change jumps whenever I need to but I still may do something similar so I can change the track layout each race. Great idea!
