THE SPORT
Flat track or dirt track racing originated in the early 1900's in the USA. In the early beginnings the tracks were made of wood boards and was subsequently named board track racing. Due to the high fatality rate board track racing was banned and flat tracks took their place. Flat Tracks are oval dirt circuits with a go left racing direction. Track lengths vary from 200 meters (1/8 mile) to 1600 meters (1 mile).
THE TRACK EST. 2004
The overall length of the oval is 300 meters and has a width of over 20 meters. The top layer of the track is made out of a fine red gravel type, giving the track its own characteristic softer cushion surface, unlike many other tracks in Europe that are typically clay based and have a much harder surface. Famous cushion tracks in the USA include Lima, Delmar and Pomona.
