2023 Arenacross – The Track Maps
With less than 40 days to go until the spectacular return of the Arenacross Tour presented by Fix Auto, we thought we’d give you a sneak peak of the amazing track designs that are set to test our riders to the their limits in the new year!
Working with our track construction partners Tru7 Group, each Arenacross track is carefully planned and sculpted, optimising the space and orientation of each arena floor in order to deliver the most technically-challenging race circuit imaginable.
From the moment the mechanical start gate drops, the tracks with their tight and twisty turns, banked corners and huge jumps are designed to encourage plenty of close and hard-charging race action all the way to the chequered flag!
At The SSE Arena, Belfast, locally-sourced dirt will be used to create a tight but technical track which promises to be a great season opener.
The P&J Live Arena is the largest arena of the Tour and has the most technical track, presenting riders with passing places and different options to take. Here, the locally-sourced dirt is all new for the tour and is a mixture of clay and sand which we hope will be a firm favourite with the Arenacross competitors as it should pack down to a really hard riding surface but give the most grip possible.
The Resorts World Arena is the largest arena of the Tour and has the most technical track, presenting riders with passing places and different options to take. Here, the locally-sourced dirt is a famous red clay which is a firm favourite with the Arenacross competitors.
At The OVO Arena, Wembley, a locally-sourced recycled aggregate type of material will be used to create a tight but technical track which promises to be a great season-ending race track. The track material is effectively crushed brick (clay) and concrete!
