Tracks

ARC's (American Racing Channel) tracks and defense design, and our state-of-the-art maintenance techniques and protocols make the tracks safe for both horses and jockeys under hard daily use. It also reduces costs by making the tracks suitable for daily training as well as challenge races.

ARC (American Racing Channel) design and maintenance professional team, gives the selection of the best available sand types achieving an optimal surface for horse impact, minimizing muscular and osseous hurts.

This gives a long and competitive life to the animal, and an unparallel return on investment comparing other types and design of surfaces.

A new track sand selection by ARC is essential for its performance; material availability studies are conducted for the best decision.

Different sand samples are taken and analyzed, the slime and clay from the particular zone are sent to laboratories where ARC does the research under technical assistant evaluating the material availability and quarries location.

By means of the granulometry analysis and each material composition (sand, slime and clay) ARC can get the best combination according to compactness, color and plasticity for a high performance racing and training race course.

Drainage and Base requirements:

Different options exist for the drainage based on studies of:

Topography and altimetry.
Ground mechanics and analysis (base and underbase).
Working level.
Track width.
Annual climatic conditions: the analysis of stations behaviour, raining averages, temperature averages, extreme temperatures, humidity and wind behaviour (speed and direction).

Defense:

The YAGUARI SITEMAS Y SERVICIOS LTDA patented defense system propose by ARC, gives the tracks boundary and protection for the horses development and competition.

Structure elements are made of PVC, for several uses, by means of the invention of an assembling and building system and a customized design for each track, ARC offers an adapted and suitable product for all needs. ARC's system has been applied and proved its main feature of horse and jockey safety preservation, besides its efficiency. It also has other important features: economics, fast substitution and design beauty.

Maintenance tools:

ARC offers technical consulting for the acquicition of maintenance tools.

Building an optimal track for both training and racing implies also having the custom tools for its maintenance. This grants you proper features maintenance keeping the tracks in the best conditions as when they were build.

Maintenance:

ARC offers technical consulting for the acquicition of maintenance tools.

Once the tracks construction is finished, ARC professional team will advice you for at least an year for proper tracks maintenance. All responsible personnel will have suitable know transfer for tools usage and maintenance tasks.
