"RACING SUPERCROSS AND MOTOCROSS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE"         

 

Welcome to Winchester Speedpark Online. On behalf of everyone at Winchester Speedpark, we would like to welcome you to our Eighth season of racing Presented by Fox Racing

     Winchester Speedpark is located on Rte 10 in the Beautiful Monadnock  Valley.  WSP offers the "Best of Both Worlds" with two parks adjacent to one another off rte 10 in Winchester.  The Original Park has hosted racing since the 50's and was converted to a Supercross track, racing Saturday nights under the lights.  The park is situated at the base of "Rattle Snake Mountain" on 14 acres with a 2 1/2 acre Supercross arena Track with a playground, large Building used for sign up, arcades, concessions "The Kick Stand" and restroom facilities.  The track was designed and Built by Professional AMA Supercross track builders Dirt Wurx - Rich and his crew head to New Hampshire each spring to completely redesign the layout to create a fresh challenge for our racers to conquer!  This year is no exception, it looks like the best track yet!  Our goal is to bring the "Big Show" here to New England with professional attention to all aspects of Supercross so when it's time for the main event, and the lights go on, it's as if you're there. Weather you're a brand new 50cc rider or a New England Pro, you can feel like you're lined up next to Ricky Carmichael.  With our new announcer, Donn Collings bringing the crowd into the race, we'll be sure to catch all of the non-stop action. 

     We head West, directly across the street on Rte 10 to 40acres of Motocross heaven.  The track was born in 2004 out of a corn field, farmed for years in rich, fertile soils with barely a rock in sight.  The Dirt Wurx crew came in and carved out a 1 mile + Motocross Track with old school in mind.  With off cambers, big berms, fast straights, it's rough and physically demanding, the way Motocross all started.  With the 40 man gate start sweeping into a right hand turn, you roost through the loamy dirt which changes every lap, forming your choice of many lines, keeping it exciting. The beautiful Ashuelot River wraps around the track where people have been spotted fishing and swimming.  Inside you'll find 15acres of flat, grassy parking with breathing taking mountain views.  Children enjoy the playground and picnic area across from the "Kick Stand" Concessions.  In 2006 is a new building with bathroom and showers was erected for those who want to camp overnight and enjoy all day indoor amenities! 

 

Rich Winkler from Dirt Wurx writes about the Mx track:

The property, adjacent to the Ashuelot River, is absolutely beautiful, and the dirt is perfect, a rich, black loamy topsoil that gets rough and builds killer berms!

This is real old school motocross …just how you remember it…. just like it should be….rough, fast, and demanding but still safe, and fun. There are off cambers and banked curves. There are step-ups and downhill floaters There are rough uphills, and a couple tabletops There are exactly zero gap style jumps!
 

We are very excited for the 2009 race season. Have a safe and fun season, from all of us at Winchester Speedpark! See you at the Races!

Mission Statement

We all - all racers and promoters in New England have to step back from time to time and try to remember the vision, the reason.

What do racers want?
A race friendly, clean facility and pits. And most importantly, A challenging yet safe track to ride and compete on.
Conditions do change due to weather and care - but they need to see effort and attention to ensuring that the track owners are doing the best that they can and that they care about the racing and the rider and the organization that visits.

Fair Competition
They hope that the other riders on the line with them are in the proper class, with the proper bike and riding at the proper level. They hope that the referees are treating everyone equally. They hope that the rules of the competition are obeyed and upheld and that the place that they earned is how they are scored.

Safety
They hope that the on track staff is alert and ready to be their eyes and ears to help guide them. They hope that if they fall they are attended to and god forbid if they are injured they have proper treatment, compassion and attention.

Be Part of Something
They want to be around like minded people. We all come together because of one common interest - racing - or loving someone who loves racing - Having the structure, place and people set for riders to come together and become life long, close friends makes us all a part of one big family. Think about how many friends and families you have come to know and love over the years racing! Now, think of your life without them and without racing..................

Personal Goals
Every rider at every level has a goal that they set for themselves in racing. Weather it be mastering a particular jump or corner, attending a certain # of races, building their endurance and strength, winning a moto, or placing in a series. These goals are far better for anyone than what they could be doing in this day and age - especially kids and teens, how many kids (especially teens) actually spend a whole day with their parents on the weekends? I can't say enough how much I have heard parents say that they spend so much more time with their kids than other parents they know that are not in racing.

As far as Turnout
Overall turnout is more spread out, there are far more options now then ever before in New England. Friendly competition is good, it will push us all to strive for the best. Every option is a little different, just like people, I am confident that the right person will find the right venue for them. Some are more competitive and some more laid back and it's all good.

Injuries
Well, that's a tough one. But, it is par for the course. I know all racers know this and say "I love it anyway" Anything we do can be dangerous, I guess you feel most alive when you do what you love and therefore it is worth the risk. The pins, the rods, the scars, the bumps - they're at the track, all over in fact ( Dave has all of them too) - I always joke "you're all crazy" and most of you agree! The bad ones are hard for all of us, but we come together as a family to offer love and support, it generally works out, and if not we must trust in god, he knows far better than we.

Our Goals
We hope to remember all of this or get out to someone who will - this is what it is all about! I'm quite sure you can add to this some of your positive thoughts on what it all means to you. I wish every race industry company every success and I hope every racer finds what they need. It's one of the fastest growing sports right now, we need to be focused on how to make it the best!!

We are excited for 2010, we are learning so much each and every year
