Well, I spoke with the owners of Steel City yesterday.

Yep, the same place that the 125 250 Pro National Motocross is held.

Well, they are kicking around the Idea of making a Rock Course!

Compitition ROCK COURSE!

They were asking about size of the rocks needed, and How to design the course. As for Room, they got lots. As for rocks.
They were talking about trucking them in. Getting the rocks is no problem, When they own a trucking firm too.

Ok, So I suggested a loop course Both Up hill and down hill, into the creekbed and back up hill threw the woods. Hmmm, Trees, and rocks and a hill. This could get interesting.

Sounded like it will be forthcoming. They are deciding on either that or a Shifter go cart track. And the cart track will cut into the room that they need for the dirt bikes, so they think that's not going to happen.

I also got a plug in for us to help design it. :D Don't worry, we will have lots of input here... When I say we, I mean Pirate BBS.

Will keep you advised...... as the events unfold...

so keep your fingers crossed. :skull: :bounce2: :bounce:

where exactly is this?

It probably won't help but my uncle works at a quarry in Butler, they may cut a deal on that amount of stone, stuff that may be unusable to them.

Thats cool as ice.

I am from that area, im from New Kensington. That would be awesome to have there. Too bad I moved to NC. I was just at Steel City over the summer for the motocross national.
