Rd#10 Sunday Sept 4th At “Locust Grove Raceway” McArthur, OH
On Sunday Sept 4th we will be throwing the green flag for our 10th round of racing of the 2016 race season at “Locust Grove Raceway” located just outside of McArthur, OH! This will be the 2nd time this property has ever been raced on, as we opened it up last season and it seemed to be a favorite with every racer that attended! The landowner purchased more acreage over the winter so we have plenty of work ahead of us cutting more brand new virgin trails! Overall this track has a pretty good variety of terrain to tackle from tight technical sections, open high speed field sections, creek crossings and a few medium sized up & down hills. We have plans for a pretty nice long adult bike only single track section as well as some new adult quad only sections for this years layout. Stay tuned for more info as the new layout progresses.
For those of you chasing season points, remember you need to race in at least 9 races and complete at least 1 lap at each event in order to qualify for our season awards banquet. So you only have 3 events left (including Mountaineer GNCC co-sanction) to get your points in for this season. The “drops/throw aways” are starting to take effect, so things are starting to get very interesting as we have some close points battles in several classes. To see your current season points standings you can check out the standings by clicking here.
This facility does have easy off the road access with plenty of semi level parking, if you would like you can bring your campers or tents out on Saturday and spend the weekend with us, as always there is no extra charge for camping. See the bottom of this page for track address & directions.

Adult Bike & Quad Amateur Overalls will receive 50% parts coupons along with the Youth & Peewee division overall winners will receive 40% off parts coupons.

Riders will be required to have a transponder which is used to record your laps and laps times when you come through the finish area. Our transponders are the stick on type which go on the back side of your helmet. The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we cant rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other race series, you are good to go as long as it passes the reader test at registration. Also there is no such thing as a “annual renewal/programming fee” with us!
