Stanmore Motocross circuit is a fast, open flowing track approximately
1.8kms in length. The surface is a mixture of hardpack, thick loam and
sandy patches. While it always has been an exciting venue for
spectators, the variable elevation, interesting mix of technical and
high-speed corners, ensure the track caters for every class of rider:
from the novice, through to the experienced competitor. Set amongst
natural bushland, Stanmore is a true test of endurance and skill with 11
jumps of varying length and difficulty.
To ensure it maintains its wide appeal, substantial modifications to the
track have been made in recent times. These include two new tabletops
immediately following the first corner (removing a notoriously
treacherous chicane), as well as other general improvements to overall
track quality. 30 self penalising, backward or rearward falling,
mechanically actuated starting gates provide a seamless start to every
race meet, and plans to upgrade these before racing starts next year
(from 30 to 40) are now in place.
These improvements have significantly increased the entertainment value
the track provides, as well as giving all riders a new layout with which
to hone their skills. |
