Race & Safety Rules

 

All ATV's, UTV's, ORV's or any other recreational vehicle must have current registration.  This may be enforced by the DNR, with violations being subject to fines.

 

All Children under the Age of 16 should be in visual and audible contact  of a person 18 years or older at ALL TIMEs. Our main concern is unsupervised children riding in the pit area, where there is a lot of truck and trailer activity. Keeping everyone safe is our MAIN priority.​​
