I am thinking of building a Truck MX Track

I have already tried it out with my "nite", it is 2 acres with 2 jumps with a lot of gas. I don't know how much gas you can get on the back part ( you see I built this as a MX track)....but now as I went over it I think I am needing more than 2 acres

I would think you would need more than two acres for a vehicle that big. I'm thinking 5 would be about as small is you could go comfortably. I'd love to see pictures of what you've put together.

I'd think you'd want at least 4 acres. If you want to get any speed, about 8 or so acres would probably be better.

Post pics of what you've got!

What I did was I took my Bobcat and leveled all my tabletop and anthill jumps that I used for my MX training track and left the two up and downhill jumps. As you have mentioned and as I come to know I need more acreage for more speed. I have another 2 acres that I am using as my golf course (with tee box and green with sandtraps) so I am a little perplexed as to doing away with it ust to have a "truck track" that the fun will wear off of because I use the 175yd course weekly year round.

I will post pics when I decide what I want to do.
