My track is Alabama red clay. I've got to come down to your track to see any kind of sand at all When this clay is allowed to dry it gets hard. Think concrete that produces red dust. When the skidsteer breaks up hard stuff it comes up in huge (5'-10') chunks that will hold a person without breaking. When a new layout is put in the clay is moist, soft, squishy, & sticky. The new layout was finished with a boxblade & drug with an 18 wheeler tire. We usually just drag it with a flat skidsteer bucket & pack the corners & jumps with a walk behind whacker packer then only put water on it. It's going to be VERY interesting to see what this new surface does.
