pretty sure you just have to build it yourself. If I were you I would look at pictures and try to get dimensions off of other peoples on the internet. There are some freestylemx boards around that would be helpful to search too , such as freestylemtx.com

Just remember, you need a way to get the bike back out.

Kenny said his pit was $75K (IIRC). Don't forget, the pit will need a removable roof as well.

He uses a bobcat to pull the bike/rider out

He left BigLou in there to make it out on his own :p

He seemed to enjoy it.

He seemed to enjoy it until Lou decided to eat his way out
