MOTO-X 338 Track Facts:


 

First National Event: 1976
Length of Course: 1.25 miles
Course Composition: Sandy Mix

 

 

Round Eleven of the AMA US Motocross Championship comes from the Sands of Southwick. The series only pure sand race, Southwick soft track surface brings out the best sand riders in the world. Always something exciting happening at Southwick, in recent years the track has favored local riders such as John Dowd (Ludlow, Mass.) and Doug Henry (Oxford, Conn.).   Southwick, known for its beautiful rolling hills and wooded setting, is also one of the most photographed tracks on the circuit as the bikes kick up a giant plume of sand called roost when they race by. An excellent subject for photos with the blasting sand showing motion in the still photograph. The sand also makes for an ever-shifting track, with ruts and bumps quickly forming after one lap around the nicely groomed track. Southwick, without a doubt, it one of the more difficult race tracks anywhere.
