Maxxis General

Georgia’s distinctive red clay makes the General what it is. If there’s rain, the soil gets soft and builds deep ruts, so be very careful when approaching traffic and bottlenecks. But when it’s dry, this course gets hard and fast.

This course does offer a motocross track with some decent jumps at the Aonia Pass MX track, but if you’re not an aerialist, don’t worry, the jumps are tamed for the GNCC.

The motocross track makes for a good passing spot if you can’t get around someone in the woods, but remember, you can only make up a few seconds out of the two-hour race there, so don’t take too many risks. Hill climbs aren't a big issue at the General. But getting clean may be, as that red Georgia clay is pretty tough to wash off of man and machine.


The GNCC track builders are usually full of energy at the beginning of the year, so look forward to some wild man-made obstacles—like the tractor tire triple jump last year (see photo above).
