At MX Track Builders, we are dedicated to delivering motocross tracks that blend creativity with functionality. Our approach is built on thorough planning and close collaboration with you every step of the way. From assessing your site to finalizing the track design and construction, we ensure a seamless process tailored to your needs. Below is an overview of our process, so you know exactly what to expect as we work together to create the perfect track.
Initial Site Review
Before conducting an on-site assessment, we begin with a remote Site Review to gather key insights about your property. This step allows us to evaluate potential opportunities and challenges early in the process, ensuring a more efficient and informed approach to your project. We provide this initial review at no cost as part of our commitment to delivering exceptional service.
This preliminary review helps us determine feasibility, refine our approach, and prepare for the next step—the on-site assessment, where we conduct a detailed evaluation of your property.
Our Initial Site Review Includes:
Site Photo Evaluation: Reviewing provided photos to assess terrain, vegetation, and existing site conditions.
Satellite Imagery Analysis: Utilizing satellite data to examine land layout, elevation changes, and potential constraints.
Soil Mapping: Identifying soil types and conditions to determine their suitability for track construction.
On-Site Assessment
Our comprehensive site assessment involves a thorough on-site inspection of the proposed track location. We evaluate key factors such as topography, soil composition, drainage potential, and overall site suitability to ensure the construction of a safe, functional track. We also identify natural features that can be integrated into the design and proactively address potential challenges, laying the groundwork for an efficient and successful build.
Assessment Includes
Initial Consultation
Understand your vision for the track
Identify desired features and layout preferences
Assess rider skill levels and any specific requirements
Topography & Terrain Analysis
Evaluate natural slopes and gradients to identify optimal areas for jumps, berms, and straightaways
Minimize the need for extensive earthmoving by leveraging existing land contours
Permits & Land Use Considerations
Address potential project impacts on the surrounding community, including noise, dust, and environmental concerns
Consult with you to assess if professional engineering support is needed to navigate zoning restrictions, environmental regulations, and permitting requirements early in the process
Vegetation Assessment
Assess current vegetation coverage and density
Determine the scope of clearing required to prepare the site
Soil Analysis
Identify and mark existing underground utilities
Excavate test pits to evaluate soil type, assess its suitability for track construction, and determine the need for any soil amendments
Identify potential subsurface challenges such as groundwater or rock
Drainage Planning
Review existing drainage patterns
Identify areas requiring additional drainage solutions to prevent water accumulation and erosion
Layout Mapping
Conduct a site walkthrough and map a preliminary layout for conceptual design
Site Access Review
Determine the safest and most efficient access routes for heavy machinery and material deliveries entering and exiting the site
Key Benefits of a Site Assessment
Early identification of potential challenges, reducing costly surprises later
Optimized track design that complements the site’s natural features
Accurate cost estimates tailored to the site’s specific condition
