Hi all, I'm moving to Oklahoma City in a few months. Does anyone know of any tracks around there, are they nice? I'm looking to get into track riding because I think my abilities have outgrown what should be done on the street. I don't want to be one of the people to give riders a worse name than we already have in the US. I'll take it to the track. What do you guys think about track schools. Are they worth the money/time???

Worth every penny!

Track riding has calmed down my street riding a ton.
As I now use the track as my outlet to crank it up I no longer feel the need to be stupid on the street.
And it has made me a far better rider.

Hallett Motor Racing Circuit.
About 60 miles NE of OKC.
1.8 miles, 9 turns, and a place with multiple motorcycle days scheduled every year.

Motorhead,

Eagles Canyon is 2.5 hours south of you and has lots of regular public track days, as well as a private membership option.

In addition to the 2 listed above, Heartland Park Topeka is 4 hours north, and its a pretty good track.

I usually hit that and Hallett at least once a year.

Oh and really good street riding in the NW Arkansas hills/mountains, about 2 hours East.
