Third you need a LOT of money as it will take a LOT of asphalt to pave even a tiny track. You need to pave at the right time of year (not too hot, cold, or humid) or else you will have problems with the asphalt coming up. You need permits to operate such a facility and you will need to consult with a lawyer about liability issues. Every single event MUST have a safety crew of some sort. You need basic facilities like bathrooms. Don't forget maintenance costs as the pavement will need to be touched up pretty regularly. And before you do any of this you need to consult with a track designer. You need someone with experience doing the final design as just because it looks good on paper does not mean that it will be good to drive.

flat tracks can be fun for drifting, but for most other racing it would be boring after a while. other wise most info here seems right on. the realtor can only help you so much. get a lawyer working on this with you nooow!
and consider this, if you put in a 3 stall garage as part of your track you can rent that space out to a local garage to help with costs during the first year.
