| Other Names | Antelope Valley Fairgrounds |
| Last Known Status | Destroyed |
This motocross park at one time offered a main track and a separate peewee track but is closed and there appears to be no plans to re-open. Both tracks were periodically groomed and the main track was watered continuously for practice.
The track were usually open for practice on Tuesdays and weekends but was also available for private rental.
Amenities included spectator bleachers and chem toilets. Primitive camping was permitted during weekends and race events. This listing will remain up for historical purposes and to prevent a wasted trip.
