LaFayette Motorsports Park (formerly Cherry Valley Motorsports Park) changed ownership in May of 2017. The new owners are excited to bring you a reinvigorated race track and experience where their customers are of the utmost importance, after safety. LMP has seen some improvements to the facility and has plans for additional improvements in 2018. 

​

  • Length of track

    • ½ mile of reconfigurable road course 22ft to 28ft wide with elevation changes, plus dedicated dirt section for SuperMoto events.

​

  • Track surface material (Asphalt, Dirt, Concrete, etc.)

    • “Totally New” asphalt surface Spring 2018 to cover the existing track as well as newly widened sections, some turns reconfigured with banking to make them fast and flat.  Totally new concrete curbing too.

 

  • Track type: (Road Course or Oval)

    • The LaFayette Motorsports Park is a reconfigurable road course, in it’s largest form made up of ten turns, six left (including the hairpin) and four right as well as a long straightaway through the start/finish line uphill to the hairpin.

    • The track has a series of underground drainage systems so that even on wet weather days, the course drains and dries quickly so as to limit the potential for rain delays or cancelations.

 

  • Type of karts that compete there. (2 cycle, 4 cycle, bikes, etc.)

    • 2 cycle, 4 cycle, SuperMoto, bikes, cars (SCCA, Autocross etc.), see our website for the current class structures.

 

  • Does the track have a rental fleet?

    • Yes, we have our Arrive & Drive program for those new to karting or just looking for a couple of sessions for fun with family and friends. 

    • We also have on site a fleet of fully race prepped Arrive & Drive karts including TaG, KT100 Sr. Pipe and Jr. Can, Kid and Cadet karts for those wishing for more of a race experience or wanting to enter one of our club event race days.

    • Full instruction and safety equipment is provided for both types of Arrive & Drive programs.

 

  • Does the track have a service shop?

    • We have a full service and repair shop on site equipped with all new tools and equipment including MiG welding and Acetylene torch etc.  Compressed air is also available out on the hot grid for filling tires or air canisters.  A loaner tool program is also available on race days for those un-planned emergencies.

 

  • Does the track sell parts?

    • We have a fully stocked kart store on site that is going to be further expanded for the 2018 season.

 

  • Does the track have a concession stand?

    • Yes, concessions are available on all race days and special events as well as many other open track days.

 

  • Does the track have bathrooms or Port-o-Potties?

    • Our bathroom renovations will be complete for the 2018 season giving us a new ladies restroom making a total of two permanent inside bathrooms with high pressure hot and cold water.

 

  • What organizations race at the track?

    • The track runs a series of club events (see website for the schedule), a special feature money race in mid July.  We are also open to hosting any events at the track with our newly expanded pit area.

 

  • What makes the track unique?

    • Our regular kart racers tell us they enjoy the track configuration in particular with the elevation changes.  Since taking over the track in May 2017, we are striving to make the facility a fun, safe and exciting place to race at.  Significant investment is being put into the entire facility to make it a world class location.
