California Motocross Park Information

[FastPix Family Racing]

I agree with all when it comes to..."who cares were it is at because to get it in California period is difficult enough as it is".
With that being said, though.......I am still surprised about the location. I understand that the owners of the acrerage can't do anything about where the acrerage is located, but when there are already complaint from the nearby residential community that is less than a mile away, regarding the smell from another long time facility, which was there long before the community was. How do the owners and promoters of this project expect to get throught the red tape of the neighboring residential community?
There is bound to be pleanty of noise, dust, traffic and time restrictions placed on the facility.
As we all know about Sac Raceway....on a bad day (wind direction, event, etc.) the noise can be heard as far as 10+ miles away.
Don't get me wrong I am all for a MX park anywhere we can get it and I look forward to this park becoming a reality. With everything that is going into it and from the design this will be a top notch facility. If there is any outside support you need for this project to keep moving forward, then you can count me in to help in any way I can.

Thanks

Fastpix: Thank you for your concerns and backhanded support of the project. We have done everything necessary to make sure we are good neighbors when we come out of the dirt - I will not discuss or comment or defend our business model on this forum; if you have concerns, email me directly or call me - I am not hard to find. FYI - since our location is industrial and is adjacent to the landfill, it fits in perfectly - there, by law, cannot be a home within one mile of our property, along with about 35 other reasons this property is perfect for our project.

I'm suspect of your motives... do you ride motorcycles?? Do you live in W. Roseville?? Sac Raceway is a toilet bowl!! Any track operator that can suck in as many riders as they do with that facility for so many years just proves the case that an AT&T (Ballpark) caliber facility will work in downtown SFO or the middle of Roseville. Fortunately, most powers that be in the Powersports Industry possess the optimism needed to grow this sport.

WOW I am appalled....a multi million dollar facility is going in...and people that claim them selves as riders are bitching about it???!!! you should be kneeling to the motocross gods that it is even in the same time zone as you!!! so, sacramento is too far from sonoma? scuse my language but shut up!! I live in oregon.....other than my home track, which i will not ride, the next closest out door track, north or south of me is 4 hours!!! That is albany. after that, the next closest is in washington, the next state up!! The closest to me in the south, wich would be norcal, is sacramento, and that is 5 hours. and you people are bitching about location within a couple hours of you? boo hoo...you have it so bad with the 50+ tracks in your state. hmm re-count...in my state, there are 4 that are full time race tracks, and 2 additional that run 4 races a year and are on the verge of getting shut down. I am sorry but it really irritates me when people have no idea, how good they have it, or how bad they DONT have it. If an hour drive is too much, you have no place in calling your self a dedicated motocross racer. Do I have place? very much so....coming from someone who works at subway, has many payments, and even takes cans back for the deposit money to put gas in the truck to get to the races. My pay check last week, for 2 weeks was $245.00. I went to a race in washington....I spent $260. So think about that before you complain about having to drive to the next city over.

ps..i apologize if i came off to other people as a bitch..but take a second in my shoes...trying to make it as a racer.

YZrider3: Email me and I will hook you up when you come down to ride - guys like you are why we are going big...more bang for the same dollar. Thank you for demonstrating in public that the spirit lives on and that the Privateer is dedicated and willing to put out the extra effort and energy necesary to get to the next level, most times doing without to ride or race.

FYI, I worked in fast food, but at Burger King , have had paper routes as an adult to make ends meet and I still bring back cans - you are not treading on a new path, but one many succesful people have traveled.

This facility will be a dream, not only to me but to other riders as well. I work as a UPS driver and i never know when im getting off work, I have an option of taking my bike to work with me, locking it with a lock to the bed. If im lucky i get off by 6pm and i can make it to Riverfront by 7pm or E street on wednesday night, but with driving back and forth for 2 hours and only riding for 1-2 hours, it alomst seems like im putting to much effort into just getting there and back. With this roseville facility i will be able to get atleast 3+ hours in and still be able to get home by bed time and get enough sleep to do it over again the next day. Will i be there numerous times a week, heck yes i will be! I will visit E street and riverfront regularly as well when possible. As for the date of the track opening up, there is no word, but rumor goes that the track will be built first and be open to public, while everything else is being built around it. Any ballpark dates? half a year, 1 year any idea at all Todd?

[yzrider3]

well thanks todd!! I am glad more than one person understood what I was trying to get across. I wil save your email, and Ill hold ya too it!! but um, it will be a girl coming down to ride haha!

[995]

YZrider3: I did not think gender neutral when I responded, sorry. Add an exclamation point to the privateer statement that you are a girl...putting riding as such a priority is awesome, adding that you are female is awesome +! I am always awed by how Alisa Nix flys...she passed me in a race at Honeylake from the second gate drop...

[nivekwill]

YZrider3: Well put. I agree...

Everyone should take a momment to thank Todd for following his passion. He is a rider and racer like us. So, Todd, My friends and I know how lucky we will be to have a facility like this to ride at. We are looking forward to it...

Also, Todd, I live in the Crocker Ranch development south of the landfill off of Blue Oaks, so if there are still any public meetings to attend coming up, please let me know. There are many riders in my community that could be there for support. Thank you for all that you are doing :-))))))))))

New spots are good for everyone. They're just as good for E-Street and Riverfront as anyone. More areas to ride invite more people to start riding. People will always have 'favorite tracks'. I certainly believe when this new facility opens we'll see Mr. Davis out there pounding laps, and why not, he's a rider first and foremost.
I think most people on this board realize how lucky they are to have options. Whether you like Dixon, Sandhill, Club Moto, Riverfront, whatever, the fact is, they're there. Don't like them, don't ride them, but you can't say it's for a lack of options. I forgot what else I wanted to say, I've derailed my own train of thought.
