I don't like how close it is to the turn with 4 round bales. That's part of the reason to move. I have a handle on geometry and other basic mathematics. But thanks for the refresher professor Knox.I can save you a ton of work. Option 2 (changing the angle) is the least amount of work and that work can be complete in about 35 seconds.
Assuming you have a 90 degree angle from the front of the gate to the first turn round bale. Your plan is to "angle" the gate to the first turn by 23 degrees. (Figure 1)

If you simply move the round bale to the left (as looking at the picture) you will accomplish the exact same result as moving the gate.

Then I am with Dave. Move it back to the kids tracks. Make the current location parking. Oh, and expand the sand section so Georgie has more area for passing. Just make sure the sand area is close to a spectator area so I can point and laugh as he falls.I don't like how close it is to the turn with 4 round bales. That's part of the reason to move.

Can you move the gate back and some how make it multifunctional like Baja Acres?
Baja uses 1 gate for the mini track and the main track.
you can use the C track for Beginer 65's and down and main track for everyone else.
If you run both tracks at the same time. (like BAJA) It will not matter how many classes you have the day will be shorter.
This was the main reason to move it to the old location, so we could use it for both tracksCan you move the gate back and some how make it multifunctional like Baja Acres?

If you goons could handle it I would dial it back up, but with all the flights and runs, I'm pretty sure you cant
Actually, not one run since the recent change......not 1 the entire Battle weekend........ahem.When have you had the most flights and runs? Then or now?
Exactly. Bring back the glory days.

I like the new layout. Speeds are down but still fast enough. Although after the start I never shift and run the whole track in 3rd on my hybrid . Jumps are still big and challenging, but safe. Funnest layout I've rode there. But I've only seen 3 different layouts maybe?
