Sad day in the Dirtbike community. @lacrmx is officially closing their doors. I know so many of us are upset about the entire situation. I’ve been lucky enough to meet so many awesome people from talented riders to other motorsports photographers at this place. I’ve been coming to this place since I was born. Thanks LACR for the great memories and fun times. 🫶🏼

This is the update that we never wanted to bring. It is with a heavy heart to announce that unfortunately due to insurance, LACR will not be able to reopen as it was. We have spent the last 18 months doing everything in our power to come back. We’ve tried just about every broker/insurance company we could. We were either denied or the rate was so high that we would not be able to sustain reopening for a reasonable cost to you. It has been an emotional roller coaster working hard to re-open. Often taking two steps forward and three steps back, we have spent thousands of dollars trying to hold out and make it work, but it’s no longer feasible to do so. Last summer we were on our way to transfer the reins of the track to new ownership. This transfer was paused as we had made head way on sponsors and insurance. With those new prospects we continued hope and kept pushing forward, but by the end of the year both had fallen through. Last month we had one final fight to obtain insurance, which fell through this week bringing us to pretty much zero options.
While the future of this facility remains unclear, we know there are a few groups interested in it. We also know that because of a new name and new owners insurance would be much more attainable. With them we hope the facility will continue to run and provide a place for many of you, our moto family.
We want to thank all of you for the support! The words of encouragement from messages to DMs to phone calls have been what has kept us going. We have been able to pour our heart and soul into this facility because of all of you. We wouldn’t have been able to try this long without the support from the gofundme and groups like Church of Dirt, Make Moto Great Again, also the private promises we were given. It showed us how much this place means to all of you. We only wish we could have made good on getting the doors back open.
For the Barbacovi family we have called this place home for more than 40 years. Thank you for all the memories, the support, and the love. We will miss our moto family and community. From all of us at LACR thank you! We hope to see you around..

After seeing how long it's been since the public has been able to ride LACR mx, I decided to make a 2025 version for MX Bikes.
Both Main and Vet Track layouts are both completely new since my 2016 version. All New jumps, corners, roughness, and some new pit objects.
Main Track Info: 24 gates - 40 pits (raceable)
Vet Track Info: 0 gates - 40 pits (practice only)
Both Main and Vet Track can record lap times.
The kids track is fun for pit bikes and an aesthetic to the facility.
(Sorry this had taken a long time. I had to buy a new PC half way through the build. 🤙)

LACR Family we need your help, this truck broke into our facility on Thursday and stole one of our water trucks. It happened in the evening, they tried to steal the other equipment as well. If anyone has seen this truck or knows anything please reach out to us. Please share where you can and let’s find these thieves. Either let us know through here or phone line is still open. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Well.. Here we are seven months later and still no closer to obtaining insurance. We have banged on just about every door possible with little to no luck. We have fought every day since we closed. With meetings, hours upon hours of phone calls, negotiating, pleading, begging… The fact is the insurance will not renew LACR under the Barbacovi name. With the lawsuits that have attacked us, the insurance does not feel the risk is worth the reward. The reason other tracks are re-opening, or re-insuring is new ownership and more than likely not the same amount of insurance we are required to have. We were only able to get one quote who was willing to insure us. The quote was so far out of the ballpark there would have been no way we could have opened without charging an arm and leg to ride. We have received help and offers from amazing companies such as Church Of Dirt, Yamaha, Oneal, a few others and all our amazing moto family with the go fund me account. Unfortunately, the money that was raised is all but spent. Even without being open, the bills never stop and they have brought us down to the point we can’t fight much longer. This facility was run for over 25 years by my Grandfather and we have run it the last 10 together. A lot of blood sweat and tears have gone into making what it is, which we couldn’t do any of it without you, the riders. We don’t want the facility to go away and with that we don’t want to take the ship down with us. We are looking into options for someone else to take over the reigns so that the facility can carry on. We aren’t sure what the future holds but we wanted to let our moto family know where we are. We appreciate all the tremendous support from all of you. We miss our weekends with you and your families, creating memories and enjoying what we all love. From all of us at LACR we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will keep you updated when more information comes to light.

Well LACR Family, we thought we would give you an update. We are still working every day to get the insurance for the track. The biggest hurdle we have is we have to carry more than most tracks because of the land owner. We have talked with a few insurance carriers and are still working to see if we can make something happen. We planned on taking the gofund me money and putting it towards the down payment on the insurance, but we are starting to run dry of funds from nothing coming in that we are gonna apply it to help us keep pushing for awhile longer. The account is still open if you feel the desire to donate. We have faith something will open up for us. It’s been a long 3.5 months since we closed down and we miss our moto family. We are thankful for every one of you who have posted about us, donated to us, bought shirts and hats to help us. We will keep fighting till we have exhausted all avenues. Please keep tagging us in posts, we love seeing that we aren’t forgotten. Thank you LACR family. We still ain’t done fighting. #lacrmx #savelacr
Hey LACR family, we were really hoping to open our doors to you this weekend with the @swapmotoraceseries . Unfortunately insurance once again has plagued us. @acookemx90 and I have been doing everything we possibly can to make it happen and unfortunately the insurance would not properly name us, which left us vulnerable. Both the race and practice is canceled. We wanted to have you back but just didn’t work out. We are sorry for the inconvenience. We are still working as hard as we can for insurance. Staying positive that something will still work out. We still may have a race at the end of the month with @othgmx they are working on their insurance right now. We hope to have better news soon, we miss our family and we hope to have you guys back as soon as we can. Thank you guys for all the support. The calls, the messages, seeing all of the @church_of_dirt_ shirts we can’t thank you guys enough. We hope to see you soon!
