Why do they call this a TT track? TT tracks anywhere in the country are clay based tracks and fla>TT<rack tires are used..... if you have a track with dirt not clay and your running knobbie tires with small speed style jumps wouldnt that be like a weak motocross track? hopefully one day in the state of florida someone will build a real TT track and we can race TT the way they do it at national events
check out stevenaceracing.com for TT race photos its a pretty cool site
the track is clay.
its a clay mix soft mushy no blue groove is there?

true.
but letting the nobby tires in brings more people and income to the races. i am a motocross person so i am not going to buy flat track tires. but i have raced a few tt races there and i cant wait to do it again! they got me to race because they let nobbys in.
hey dont get me wrong im not knockin it or anything just a question maybe in other states there is more people into TT i raced TT in pa and loved it so ill just stick to the oval here where i run on the groove left left left left ;D
SM has been a great place to go have fun and race. The track is one of the funnest and the fastest tracks I have riddin. And I can not wait until they open back up.
TT, PT, ET... I don't care what they name it. I know it's fun as hell. It doesn't beat you up like MX and is more technical than FT. The new track that is supposed to be built is going to be bigger and more technical than the old one ;) . I can't wait either.
who cares about TT i cant wait for the MX track to open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i miss is so much. :'( i hope it opens back up. :-\
i heard a house was just built right next to it so it doesnt look like it will be opening again but i could be totally wrong
maybee its Dales house. :P
sorry i dont know who dale is....im just repeating what your dad said jake ;)

Jake, seeing that the quad turnout for TT is 3 times (if not more) than what rides on their MX track I'd say who cares about their MX track :-* .

Ummm NO! Don't believe everything you hear. I rode out there about a month and a half ago and unless they moved a trailer to that area... there was no house or homes being built there.
It's not my area down there, but I've heard from several directions that it's not going to reopen. I don't know how reliable this is, it's just what I've heard.
there site says there going to post open times for the upcoming season. so it looks like there planing on opening back up.

I personally love TT Racing!
Ive recently started racing alot of MX, and the one thing that I have found is............ most MX guys are scared to or not able to go as fast as the TT guys, racing side by side at speeds of 65+ mph over a jump through a sweeper, side by side with 3 or 4 other quads that are inches from each other, all competing for the first one to get to the first tight corner, just so they can position themselves to take you out on the next one!
Not as much follow the leader!
Tecate- The track does get a solid pack and sometimes get very slick and blue grooved in areas! But like Rob said, they are redesigning the TT track to be a little more technical and with possible drastic elevation changes that are kinda scary at very high speeds! SM could turn into a National class Park if the locals will let it! But Dale is definately planning on reopening! Hes pretty stubborn!
oh i wasnt talking bad about TT i like it its fun. i just miss the MX track thats all. ;)
