This photo shows the track as it was in January 2002.
This was the middle of summer, and the clubhouse then was just a slab.
The photo gives you an overall idea of the layout of the track. Extensive work has been done since then including; clubhouse, watering system, pits, car park, start chutes, other fencing and cleanup.
The track is approximately 1.7km long, and is about 8-10m wide for most of the track. The starting grid features 40 self-penalising gates; mechanically dropped, and the start pad is earth. Obstacles include tabletops, step up, step down, whoops, ski jumps, triple-up, berms and off camber corners. The width and layout of the track allows for many passing opportunities and is generally considered to be relatively fast and flowing.

In order to keep a facility the size of this club functioning, there are dozens of things that need to be done. Some of these are administrative - such as any club might have, with others like maintenance of the track, involving just plain old hard work.
Keeping 30 acres of track in safe and good condition, requires more than just a wheel barrow and whipper snipper!
Many local businesses give literally thousands of dollars of free equipment and time to assist us in keeping the track and its infrastructure up to date. Some major areas of support including:
