Special to the Batt
Action, noise and people having
a good time; all of these and
more are the elements of moto-
cross racing.
A sport enthusiastically receiv
ed by motorcycle racing crowds
in both Europe and America, mo-
tocross has finally established it
self in the Brazos Valley.
The Texas Motocross Park, lo
cated eight miles south of College
Station across Highway 6 from
the Texas World Speedway, is
the site of local competition.
The Texas Motocross Park,
open since July, 1973, was con
ceived and built by track man
ager Leon Chandler.
“I bought a bike and didn’t
have a place to run it,” said
Chandler.
Looking for a tract of land on
which to set up a motocross facil
ity, Chandler asked a real estate
agent to show him some land,
“that couldn’t support anything
other than mesquite and scrub
brush and was really the most
undesirable land for any usual
development.”
Chandler’s next obstacle was
the financial backing for the
track. Henry Menefee, Jim Prim-
ble and Joe Fisher, a local mo
torcycle shop operator, came to
Chandler’s help and work was in
itiated on the track construction
last March.
Construction of the dirt track
was accomplished through the
use of a tractor and other heavy
machinery. The track was three
months in the making, said Chan
dler.
A short tight-cornered course,
the track is intended to show the
best riders, no matter what size
motorcycle they choose to run,
said Chandler.
The big-engined biker used to
shy away from the Texas Moto
cross Park because it lacked the
long straightways that allowed
their bikes to really shine. “Oc
casionally, small, less powerful
motorcycles would outrun the big,
powerful machines on the intri
cate course,” said Fisher, a moto
cross competitor himself.
But Fisher attributed this to
driver skill because the track
acted as an equalizing factor for
the bikes.
“In motocross racing a com
petitive combination consists of
20 per cent adequate motorcycle
and 80 per cent rider talent” said
Fisher. “Motocross is a youth
oriented class of racing where the
physical requirements are nat
ural ability to start with acquired
experience and raw courage” add
ed Fisher.
“Locally we have a lot of talent
that could really be developed if
the shops would work with the
riders,” said Fisher. “However,
competition off the track between
shops and their respective brands
hurts the sport” said Fisher.
Chandler and Fisher are en
thusiastic about future prospects
of motocross racing in the area.
The crowds are consistently good
for the every-third-Sunday events.
Spectator facilities are more than
adequate at the track and the on
lookers are allowed to choose their
own vantage points around the
track to see the aspects of moto
cross that most appeal to each.
Riders in all classes compete
for money for the professionals
and trophies for the amateurs.
Rider’s ages range from ten-
year- olds competing on mini
bikes to men with many years of
professional experience riding un
limited class motorcycles.
“In two or three years we hope
to be running some of the events
on the nationals trail,” said
Chandler.
“Presently we hope to develop
enough talent in a 50 mile radius
to solely support the track. Then
we wouldn’t feel any effect from
the gas crisis,” said Fisher.
