Since we know there watching are there any comments on the track, are there any changes that should be made?
I have no complaints. Hell i might be there next saturday.
ax handle gate
wooden gate with house shingles for traction
doubles with water pits
a tiki bar next to the concession booth
and bring back the bridge that went over the finish line back in 1990
tiki bar next to the consession stand, yeah, you may be on to something

Dave you are well known for your lifestyle
hahahahahahahahaha
that was good!
Dave is the face of bmx in new jersey!!!!!!!!!!
Just some constructive critisicm here. Please don’t take the wrong way…
The gate needs to be re-welded in areas.
Something needs to be done with the last turn. Make it a mini version of the first turn. There’s just no speed there. It really can kill an exciting race.
Aside from these two items, everything was great. I thought the changes in the 1st and second straights were awesome. I especially love how you can come out of the 1st turn at mach 1, pull the front of what apprears to be a small shallow table and then kick it down the backside of what is actually a high table. It powers you into that double. Good stuff.
On a side note…
I’ve read many posts here regarding NJ BMX and the direction it should head. Although, I agree that PA’s, gear bags, plates, sweatshirts, etc. are cool and are great things for the riders…keep in mind that BMX starts with the track. In my opinon, any granted funds should be used to make each track in NJ a national caliber track. EHT is close, change the last turn, rebuild the starting gate, and hope that scumbags dont destroy everything. I hear that Pottstown is already there. CJ and HC need work.
Promotion and a internal system (laptop, software, printer, etc) that works would be next. Keep in mind that you can promote BMX (your product) all you want, but if your product is sub par you’ll only retain a small amount of your new customers.
There’s more, but I hate typing out long posts. See everyone at the meeting on Tuesday.

Track issues are track issues.
The state is designed to promote BMX as a whole.Also, as Glenn Knapper will attest to…
any 501c3 has MANY opporutunities for grants to do things such as track work.
So it would make sense for the tracks to do their homework.Joe,
You do have a point.
Can you secure some grant money for track changes?
We have secured grant money for promotional items.I think the table top out of the first turn could use some work and the huge double could maybe not dip so much so it could be easier to manual it shoots you up and right down into a dip.
