Wachusett Valley Riders Club was incorporated in 1996. A group
of families got together to create a club that would have a dirt
oval for practicing and racing. It took 2 years to build the track
and facility to the point when we could have sanctioned races. We
ran small family style events for 3 years while a small group of
people worked to shut us down. The opposition nickel and dimed us
over frivolous issues causing us to spend money on lawyers and court
hearings. It all came down to legal terms about the validity of
our permit for racing. A judge shut us down for racing but not practice.
The club lost a good amount of members and all of it's momentum.
It took 5 years to prove we were right, recall 2 selectman, pass
a racing bylaw, get a new site plan and reapply for permits. June
of 2005 WVR reopened. We have struggled to rebuild are fan base
and catch up from not having much income for 5 years. 2006 saw more
interest but rainy weather cancelled a lot of events. 2008 saw great
things for WVR. The TT track was fine tuned to make for great racing
for big and little bikes. Off track improvements include new fencing
along the road. Larger pit area and on ramp to the track makes it
easier for all. We moved the jersey barriers back 12' and reshaped
the entire track. The result will be even more passing room. WVR
is hosting flat track schools, practice days and races. The races
will have flat trackers, TT races and Karts. We have club cookout
days and we are involved in several civic functions. The first club
meeting is April 30weather permitting at the track. C'mon by then
to check it out or stop by a race. We are very excited about 2011.
Our concentration on youth racing and working with local dealerships
is working well, our track maintainence equipment is all most set
and new families are joining.
WVR is proud to announce the Bill Haas & WVR are certified
for ATV & Dirt bike schools.
