Soil when dry

Dry hardpack turns hard, slick and dusty - little grip reserve, especially on corner exit.

Soil after rain

After rain a greasy film forms on the hard base - very slippery until the surface dries.

LengthImport: 1,586 m

RTC Northeim runs the motocross track at Badenhausen on the edge of the Harz: 1586 metres on hard ground, fast and with built jumps. The club now stages its motocross in its 58th edition - and puts equal weight on getting people started: a motocross taster course features regularly in the programme. Race weekends traditionally include a race party with live bands, which does more for the paddock atmosphere than any banner. Provisional schedules are published in advance.
