OTC - On Track Creations

These tracks are located in Cleveland, Alabama. Over the past 6 years, we have built 10 different tracks for Chad Ward and the supercross park. Southern Supercross features an indoor supercross, outdoor supercross, and an outdoor motocross track. This is the personal training ground for Chad Ward, along with many other top pros making their rounds through the southeast. Trey Canard, Tyler Bowers, and Ryan Sipes are just a few who have trained at Southern Supercross. One of the really cool things about the indoor track, is that it’s actually dug down roughly 8ft. This served two purposes. One was to generate all the dirt for the track (which allowed for quite a bit of excess,) and the other was to lower the floor so no one would hit the ceiling off one of the huge jumps. Unfortunatly, Chad is no longer racing the pro circuit, but we want to give thanks for all of his years of dedication to OTC. Thank you!

We built this supercross track for up and coming 65/85 rider, Challen Tennant. The track is located in Conroe, Texas. We were actually in Texas at the time building the Cernics Kawasaki team supercross track, when Challens grandfather called us to see if we could come build him something. Three days later, we were there moving dirt. This was a really cool track, it was basically a full blown SX track just shrunken down so that the 65 and 85 bikes could make the jumps. It had all the features of a real SX, including whoops, triples, rhythm sections, and huge bowl corners. (I was dying to get on a pitbike and ride this thing!) This is a good example of how we can generate dirt from a flat area to build a track. We didn’t haul any dirt in to build this track. Basically by lowering the entire grade, we were able to generate enough dirt and still keep positive drainage all the way around. See the before and after pictures.

For the ’08 and ’09 season, Paul Carpenter called on OTC to build his private supercross track. The location was Huntington, TX. When we arrived, we found the typical soil for that area, which consisted of a couple feet of sand with hard clay underneath. This was a challenge for us because you can’t build jumps out of sand. We had to strip the sand off all of the areas where there would be track and dig a barrow pit to get the clay needed for the base. Basically, flip flop the sand for clay. Then we excavated the existing pond to make it larger, in order to get all of the dirt for the jumps.

We moved roughly 6,500 yards on this job, and from start to finish it took us 6 days. It wasn’t your typical SX track. It had two full 300ft long rhythm sections, two sets of whoops, and every other obstacle you would see on a SX track and then some! Paul felt that having this track contributed to his success in 08-09 when he won the top privateer award.
