View Full Version : Professional track layout !!
Hi all !
Do you know where I can find information about any professional track ? I'd like to know how high jumps are ?
I run at the local BMX track and the top of the jumps are about 4 ft high. I'm sure they are too high.
How high are your jumps ?? :)

The jumps on my track are between 2.5 and 3.5 feet high. I've raced on some tracks that the jumps are higher, and some that are smaller.

Do you mean that your truck flies at 2.5 to 3.5 ft high or the top of the jumps is at 2.5-3.5ft from the ground ?

I mean the tops of the jumps. There are pictures of two of the track layouts we've used on the track website. In some of the pictures on the website you can see trucks as much as 7 feet up in the air, depending on the truck, and the jump.

That track is something like 100 feet X 50 feet. Some people think it's very tight, but its actually just about right to keep people racing together without feeling cramped. We've had 8 MT's on it at once, and it's never boring, but you always feel like you've got room to race (unless you just get tangled up).
My track will be 80x50 with 10ft wide track.
