Hangtown MX, Prairie City
SVRA Under Threat
W
hen it comes to land-use
and OHV rights, it seems
there are always fires on the
horizon and "action alerts" to
respond to, but every now and

moment that warrants circling
the wagons. That critical mo

ment is now, because the future
of Hangtown MX, the Prairie City
SVRA, home of the Hangtown
Motocross Classic, is at risk. A
solar project directly adjacent to
the OHV park is trying to move
forward in Rancho Cordova, and

the AMA Pro Motocross circuit.

scheduled for Thursday, Septem-
ber 4, could help urge the county
to withdraw the project.
