Got Questions? We've Got Answers!

Welcome to the FAQ page for Unadilla Motocross. You will find answers to frequently asked questions listed by event below.

JDAY OFF-ROAD

  • I’m not a JDay member. Can I still race?

    You will need to either buy a weekend JDay membership or a full-year JDay membership.

  • What is the difference between Saturday and Sunday?

    Each day is a stand-alone event. It’s a double header, and you can race either or both days. The course will have some modifications between Saturday and Sunday so that you aren’t racing the exact same course both days.

  • Is pre-entry Available?

    Pre-entry is strongly encouraged. You can find the pre-entry on the JDay website at www.jdayoffroad.com. Pre-entry usually opens about a week before the event. There is a class size limit, so pre-entry guarantees your spot. In the past, as long as you pre-entered, you were able to get the class(es) you wanted with no problem.

  • Can I pre-enter if I'm not a member?

    Pre-registration is open to both members and non-members. Remember, you will still need to purchase a JDay weekend or full-year membership at registration.

  • Do I need to be a member of the AMA/ATVA to race this event?

    No. But you do need to be a JDay member. You can join at the track by purchasing either a weekend or full-year JDay membership.

  • Where can I go to get race information?

    You can visit the series website at www.jdayoffroad.com.

  • Do you accept credit cards?

    Yes but cash gets you a cheaper cash price. At the gate, we do accept American Express, Discover Card, MasterCard and Visa.

  • We cannot make the gate closing time on Friday/Saturday. Is there somewhere we can park until the gates open in the morning?

    Yes, we have a large holding area across the road, so you are safely off the highway. Please pull all the way in, leaving room for any others in the same situation.

  • Where can I go to get general facility information?

    You can visit our website at www.unadillamx.com. Under the “Events” tab, you will find the JDay event. Admission prices, camping fees, gate opening and closing times, etc. can be found there. Food and ice will be available for purchase at the event on Saturday and Sunday, including breakfast and coffee!

  • I really would like some footage of my child racing. Do you allow drones?

    No, drones are not allowed over the facility at any time. If you have a Go Pro attached to your helmet or bike, they are allowed.

MX REWIND

  • Do I have to be a member of a racing organization?

    No memberships of any kind are required at MX Rewind.

  • Do I have to be a member of the AMA?

    No. This is not an AMA-sanctioned event.

  • Do you offer any modern classes that weekend?

    MX Rewind is a vintage racing weekend. The only modern class is for 65cc/85cc racers who have a parent racing at MX Rewind.

  • Only one of my parents can attend. What do I do?

    The best thing to do is pre-enter. Please contact us ahead of time (phone number is best: (607) 965-8450) so that we can email you an online racing waiver. WE NOW REQUIRE BOTH PARENTS TO SIGN THE MINOR RACING WAIVER. We can email you or the missing parent an online racing waiver to cover their absence. Divorce, separation, or deployment do not waive this requirement.

  • Can I race both Cross-Country and The Grass Track?

    You absolutely can, and many will! Cross-country racing is scheduled to end before we start grass track practice. Should something unexpected delay the finish of cross-country racing, we will add a practice at the very end of the grass track practice sessions for those racers.

  • Can I race every day?

    We have classes for all bikes up to 1999 each day. Saturday is a bit more limited for bikes from 1978–1999 because it is more of a vintage (pre-1978) day, but we still gotcha covered.

  • I have a 1999 bike. What events can I do?

    You can race the Post Vintage Cross Country and Grass Track Scrambles on Friday. The extra classes on Saturday, and then several classes on Sunday. As long as your bike is a 1999 or earlier, we can keep you racing all weekend!

  • I am under 18, and my parent cannot attend. How do I register for the event?

    Please contact us ahead of time so that we can email you or your parents an online racing waiver. Both parents need to sign the waiver; divorce, separation, or deployment do not override this requirement. We recommend pre-entering so you are covered by both signatures ahead of the event.

  • I have several people coming, and we all want to camp together. I’m not sure we can arrive together, however. Can we hold spots?

    At this event, we can help you hold spots for your friends. Just tell the parkers how many more vehicles are in your party, and it should all work out! Part of the fun of this event is having good times with racing friends, so we want you to be together!

  • Do you accept credit cards?

    We do accept American Express, Discover Card, MasterCard and Visa. However, paying with cash gets you a cheaper cash price.

  • I really would like some footage of the racing. Do you allow drones?

    No, drones are not allowed over the facility at any time. If you have a Go Pro attached to your helmet or bike, they are allowed.

AMATEUR CLASSIC

  • Do I need to be a member of the AMA to race this event?

    Yes, you need to be a member of the AMA in order to race. There are some AMA membership options. First, if you sign up for the full-year AMA membership online, be sure to print out the temporary card and bring it with you. If you intend to be a full-year AMA member, it is to your advantage to have the membership card in hand at the event, as our registration system uses the AMA member hard card. Keep in mind that if you intend to be a full-year member, it can take up to 8 weeks to get the membership card if you are working in advance.


    Another option is a one-day membership, which is also available online.


    AMA memberships will not be sold at the track due to their availability online.

  • Do I need to be a member of an AMA district?

    Not for this event. AMA membership is required.

  • I am under 18 and my parent cannot attend. How do I register for the event?

    The best way is to pre-register. Starting in 2022, both parents have to sign the racing release. The only exception made is for the death of a parent or sole custody. Divorce or deployment are not exceptions. Pre-registration provides an easy way for both parents to sign the release. If this isn’t possible, please contact us so that we can see if we can find another option. Calling is best: (607) 965-8450.

  • We cannot make the gate closing time. Is there somewhere we can park until the gates open in the morning?

    Yes, we have a large holding area across the road, so you are safely off the highway if you arrive after the gates close. Please pull all the way in, leaving room for any others in the same situation.

  • What is your policy for dogs?

    Amateur racers are allowed to have friendly dogs. However, this is not a good environment for them, regardless of how “gentle, kind, and loving” your dog is. The noise alone is dangerous for their hearing. We would prefer that you leave your dog at home. If your dog is tied up at your campsite, the lead cannot extend to any other campsite. You must clean up after your dog at all times. We do allow officially marked service dogs, as defined by the ADA. The dog must be in a marked vest at all times. We reserve the right to ask those with dogs deemed unfriendly for any reason to leave, with no refunds given. You are solely responsible for the actions and behavior of your dog.

  • Do you allow pit vehicles?

    Pit vehicles will only be allowed for those who can present a state DMV-issued handicapped parking tag. This year, we will be searching for pit vehicles prior to entrance. If you have a pit vehicle and no state DMV-issued handicapped tag, you will be denied entrance. Those with state DMV-issued tags will be allowed one driver band, and the driver must be over 18 years of age. The band and handicapped vehicle ID tag must remain on at all times. No pit vehicles, for any reason, are allowed on Saturday due to the dense nature of the crowd. We do run shuttles from the camping areas to both the front and back.

  • Do you have ATMs on-site?

    Yes, there are ATMs on site. We recommend bringing cash ahead of time. Food concessions do not take credit cards.

  • Do you accept credit cards?

    We do accept American Express, Discover Card, MasterCard and Visa. However, paying with cash gets you a cheaper cash price.

  • Can I just practice on Friday?

    No. Friday is an optional practice day for event racers only.

  • Will there be a practice on Saturday morning?

    1-2 site laps only.

PRO NATIONAL MX

  • Do you offer spectator camping?

    Yes, we offer spectator camping!

  • Do you charge for parking?

    For 2023, there is no parking charge for the day lots.

  • Do you have handicapped parking?

    We have space allotted for those with state-issued DMV handicapped parking passes.

  • How old does my child have to be to buy a ticket?

    Any child who is 6 years old or older needs a ticket. Ages 6–11 qualify for a child ticket. Anyone over the age of 11 is considered an adult.

  • We bought Saturday adult tickets, but now we are coming before Saturday. What do we do?

    Bring your Saturday tickets, and we will credit the ticket price ($60) towards your gate fee on the day you arrive. You will pay the difference.

  • I bought a ticket as a gift for someone. It has my name on it. Is that a problem?

    Nice gift! And, no, it isn’t a problem. The recipient simply brings it with him/her to claim the ticket.

  • I have a six-year-old. Does she need a limited-access pit pass to join us in the pits?

    Yes, anyone 6 and older needs to have a limited-access pit pass.

  • I bought a limited access pit pass. What do I do now?

    Beginning at 6:30 on Saturday, you will take your pdf attachment showing the Limited Access Pit Pass purchase to the Event Center. We start making insurance waivers at that time. Beginning at 7:00 a.m., we exchange your pass for your pit band. All those entering the pits must come to the event center for their band. You cannot collect a band for someone who is not with you. Minors must be accompanied by an adult to sign the insurance release. Please do not wait until just before 9:00 to make the exchange.

  • What is your policy for dogs?

    We do not allow day spectators to bring dogs. We do allow officially marked service dogs, as defined by the ADA. The dog must be in a marked vest at all times.


    Those staying in the camping lots are allowed to have friendly dogs. However, this is not a good environment for them, regardless of how “gentle, kind, and loving” your dog is. The noise alone is dangerous for their hearing. We would prefer that you leave your dog at home. However, if you are bringing it with you, you must leave Fido in your camp site area at all times. If your dog is tied up at your campsite, the lead cannot extend to any other campsite. Potty breaks must remain within your campsite, and you are expected to clean up after them. We do allow officially marked service dogs, as defined by the ADA. The dog must be in a marked vest at all times. We reserve the right to ask those with dogs deemed unfriendly for any reason to leave, with no refunds given. You are solely responsible for the actions and behavior of your dog.

  • What is your alcohol policy?

    You may tailgate with it, but it cannot come through the facility gates.

  • Is the facility wheelchair accessible?

    Our interior roads are hard-packed, but spectator areas are grass. There are no sidewalks within them. We do have a viewing platform located on the front of the bleachers on Gravity Cavity for those in wheelchairs (one guest may accompany). We also have wheelchair-accessible bathrooms on the front and back sides of the facility. We welcome electric wheelchairs as well, but we do not allow golf carts, UTVs, etc. due to the congestion.

  • Do you allow pit vehicles or golf carts?

    No, due to crowd congestion, no pit vehicles, golf carts, or motorized vehicles are allowed on Saturday. Motorized wheelchairs are fine. We do offer a shuttle that goes from the front side to the back side. The shuttle does have stairs.

  • What time does the gate open on Friday/Saturday?

    Gates open for spectators at 7 a.m. on Friday and 6 a.m. on Saturday.

  • What time do the gates close?

    Day spectators must exit the facility by 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday evenings.

  • Do you have an ATM on-site?

    Yes, there are ATMs on site.

  • Do you accept credit cards?

    We do accept American Express, Discover Card, MasterCard, and Visa at the gate, but a convenience charge is added to every ticket/pass purchased. Food concessions and many of the other concessions are cash-only.

  • I really would like some footage of the racing. Do you allow drones?

    No, drones are not allowed over the facility at any time.

CAMPING

  • What Can Go on a Campsite Site?

    A site can have one vehicle on it with something in tow as long as it’s no more than 70’ in length. In other words, an RV pulling a race trailer, a truck pulling a camper/pop-up. No extra tents can be added to the site due to the need for space safety separation. 

  • Can We Put a Tent on a General Camping Site?

    Yes. But it cannot be added to a site occupied by another camping vehicle. 

  • Do You Have a Space Just for Tents?

    Yes there is a tent only reserved area. The spot will find a car or truck plus a tent. One tent per spot.

  • Do I Have to Buy a Camping Pass in Advance?

    No as long as they don’t sell out in advance! We have the spots we have. We cannot find another area to add more on the fly. That is why we recommend you get a camping pass in advance. That way you know you have a spot

  • If You Have Spots Left, Will You Sell Them at the Event?

    Yes of course. But again, we have the spots we have and once they are filled, we cannot offer more.


  • Can I Reserve a Specific Spot/Lot?

    Unfortunately no. Our system isn’t that sophisticated for a one time a year event! Only “Premier Camping” is one specific lot.

  • What Time Does the Gate Open/Close?

    Gates open at 12 noon on Thursday. THERE IS NO ADVANCE STAGING AREA. There is no place to wait for that gate to open so please do not come earlier. Camping gates officially open at noon on Thursday and close at midnight. Friday gate opening is 6am with a midnight closure. Saturday gates open at 6am. The camping gate will close at 11pm on Saturday. 

  • I Bought an (Inner Circle, Sky High Club, Holeshot Club) Ticket. Do I Still Need to Buy a Ticket for the Other Days?

    Yes, but you should wait and upgrade when you arrive. You have already paid for Saturday so you just need to pay the difference between the price of the multi-day ticket less the credit for a Saturday ticket.

  • Do I Need an Admission Ticket?

    Yes. You will need an admission ticket for the day of arrival through Sunday. In other words, if you arrive on Thursday, you need a Thursday-Sunday ticket. Arrive on Friday and you need a Friday-Sunday ticket. Saturday camping arrivals need a Saturday-Sunday ticket. You are welcome to leave earlier than Sunday but you still will need the Sunday ticket. Camping has returned to create a nicer experience for fans by removing the need to hurry in in the morning and hurry out after the event. As a result, support and security staff are hired around the clock for the entire run.

  • Do You Have Hook-Ups?

    We do not have any direct hook ups. (This is a 3 night per year event.) However, there are several locations to get potable water on site throughout the weekend. And, no, we don’t charge for it.

  • Are There Showers on Site?

    Yes in camp lot 2.

  • I Bought a Ticket for the Wrong Days. What Do I Do?

    The easiest thing to do is call us and we can change the days with you over the phone. New tickets with the corrected days will be immediately emailed to you. The second option is to pay the difference when you arrive.

  • What Is Your Policy on Alcohol?

    We allow a six pack per day per person 21 and older. No glass bottles. You need to bring it when you first arrive as upon reentry it will most likely be confiscated.

  • Marijuana Is Legal in NY. Does That Mean I Can Smoke at Your Event?

    NY allows it but we don’t. Leave the marijuana home. Don’t make us take it. You won’t get it back.


  • Are Campfires Allowed?

    Right now we are saying yes. However, that depends upon the conditions at the event. If it’s been a dry spell and the grass is dried out, camp fires will not be allowed. And keep in mind, a campfire is a maximum of 24” across. Bonfires are NOT allowed.

  • Can I Bring My Dog?

    Yes but Fido needs to be friendly. Fido also needs to stay in your campsite and potty breaks are to be taken within your campsite. If your dog is leashed outside, it should not be unattended and its leash should not extend outside your campsite boundaries. People will be walking by and your dog should not be able to get near them. Clean up after your dog! No walking Fido around.

  • Can I Bring a Pit Vehicle?

    Due the actions of people with pit vehicles at past events and insurance requirements pit vehicles are not allowed. We will have trolleys moving from 8am-7:30pm on Friday and Saturday and 8am-approx 3pm on Sunday.

  • What About Drones?

    Leave it home. We do not allow drones over the event site. Both FAA regulations and NYS drone laws prohibit the use of drones over a large event space.

  • Part of My Family Is Coming Later In a Second Vehicle. Can They Park At Our Campsite?

    Due to NYS safety regulations, no. But they can purchase an extra vehicle pass and park in a car parking area.

  • When Do Campers Have To Exit The Facility?

    Your camping pass is good through noon on Sunday. All campers must exit prior to noon on Sunday.

  • Can I Leave to Go to Town for ….

    Yes as long as you have your wristband on and your camping pass/parking pass on the windshield you can. All vehicles are subject to search upon entry and reentry.

  • Is There Food and Ice for Purchase?

    Yes to both. Food and ice are available starting Friday at 6:30am. Past experience has told us that campers make their own dinner so food sale grills usually go off in late afternoon. Bring cash as food vendors do NOT take credit cards

  • Do You Have an ATM on Site?

    We have a contractor who brings 2-3 to the event. However, we encourage you to bring enough cash to get you to Friday. You never know with wireless technology when there will be a problem!

  • Do You Take Credit Cards?

    At the gate, yes. But there is a convenience fee to use them. Food vendors do NOT take them, however.
