Valley Motocross

Valley Motocross, also known as Valley MX, is an outdoor motocross track in Stanton, Michigan, in Montcalm County in the central part of the state. It is a family-friendly facility with a well-groomed main track that mixes elevation, jumps, and berms, plus a separate mini track and a 50Jr/60 beginner track, so households with riders at different levels can all run the same property. Dirt bikes and quads are both welcome, and local riders give Valley a lot of credit for posting flaggers at the blind spots to keep newer riders safe.

Open practice days are weather-dependent and the track is not open every day, so call before you haul. When practice is running it is typically 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM on weekdays and 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekends. No membership is needed to ride on open practice days. Ride fees run $30 a day on the big track and $20 a day on the mini and beginner tracks, with a $5 spectator gate and kids 10 and under free. All youth riders ages 4 to 17 must wear chest and back protection.

Valley is a regular host for AMA District 14 motocross racing and also runs Michigan Mafia Championship points events and Mid-East Area qualifiers. On race days, class entry is typically around $30 per class with a $10 spectator gate, and racing requires a current AMA membership and a District 14 card.

The property has on-site restrooms, a pavilion for gatherings, and open space for dry RV and tent camping on event weekends. Schedules move with the weather, so check the Valley Motocross Facebook page or call 517-881-8756 before you make the trip.
