Because PAL doesn’t have an agreement with USA BMX, Santa Clara riders can’t officially qualify for competition on their home track.
The racetrack was also shut down last month after PAL discovered volunteers were not keeping standard accounting practices. After obtaining the necessary insurance, PAL says the track will reopen Tuesday, May 31st.
"USA BMX would like to just take the track and fully operate it and PAL does not want to do that. We want to do it the way we’ve been doing it since 1998, since we’ve been sanctioned. Where we operate the track and they are the sanctioning body just like they do for over 300 other tracks throughout the nation," said Mike Walke, Santa Clara PAL Exec Board Pres."I’ve been sad since they closed the track because I miss racing," said BMX rider Mia.
"I need this track open under USA BMX sanction in order to get myself ready for world and try to make State One again," said Chase, who's planning a trip to France to compete. People on both sides of this debate made their voices heard but the Council didn't make a final decision about the racetrack Tuesday night, so for now the racetrack will remain a practice facility.
