MX 131 R/C Off-Road Racing 2008

Welcome to the new thread, and to the newest and Biggest Off-road Racing Facility in West Michigan. Here is a little info on us.

We are on 40+ acres of land right off from the Martin Allegan exit of Us-131. On those 40+ acres we house a 1 mile long dirt bike and atv track and a smaller novice dirt bike track with the hopes of an indoor arena to run in this winter. And now we have the addition of a 150' x 80' Off-Road R/C track. Not to mention we are a stones throw from the Knoll-Gas Raceway. Please visit our website at www.mx131.com.

Here is the 2008 schedule

Special Events
05/24 Cash Back Race
07/12 East West Nitro Shootout

In the month of August 2008 we will run races every Saturday night starting at 6 PM as part of the 'MX131 August 2008 Saturday Night Series'.

Thank You,
The MX-131 Team

For right now you'll have to provide your own power and tables. We hope to have some power outlets available soon, but drivers stand and pit lane have a higher priority right now.

There is also 1 plug down by the well that could be used for now, but you'd have to bring your own extension cords

I actually thought about you today while I was there. It's a "Swint" type of track! You are the Ripper.

Dave Walton.....

The drivers stand will have a ramp! We discussed it yesterday when staking out the drivers stand. The stand will also have a lowered rail at the end for you to see over. What is a good height for you Dave? We can mention it and it will get done. Owner really gets stuff done... and fast.
