Any quad riders ever ride this track? Their web site says quad friendly, just curious? I was going to ride Waldo Sat but hear its going to be real busy/crowded because of the race on Sunday.

I was next door to the place this past week. The track looks challenging. I asked the person I met if quads run there and he told me they did. There was no one riding whe I went past it, though.

I go there all the time, the main track is fine for quads, but if you're a beginner they also have trails, a beginner MX track, a sand track and many other things. Worth checking out for sure

The roller coaster track at Hard Rock was made for quads and is really fun!

Definitely quad friendly--front track is challenging, but many other things to do at Hard Rock. All around it is one of the better places to check out around the Orlando/Apopka area!!

Don't want to sound like a jerk or anything but it was actually made after a European GP style course. None the less it is very fun! Not to many jumps, but some sweet hills. The trails can get junky if it is wet outside, but most of the puddles can be avoided. I crashed really hard last time out, my front wheel slide out in a turn because of the layer of slippery stuff. Probably if your just starting off I'd stick to the Outback, Sand track, and rollercoaster. Those would be the most suitible but if you go out on the main track theres nothing thats dangerous that you actually have to do to survive. Plus on the weekdays its very empty!

I have mixxed emotions about Hard Rock. I've been there 2 times and the 1st time I went the Sand Track and the Dust Bowl track (one in the back) were groomed and fun to ride. The last time we went up the tracks were horrible. All except for the Pro style track in the front. On the sand track and the dustbowl track there were washouts b/f some of the jumps. Seems like they hadn't been groomed in weeks. After that I decided I wouldn't be going back. But if they are groomed it's definitely an awsome place to ride and so much you can do.
