u should juss contact the guys at the track closest 2 u and ask them wassup
Also, a good ballpark for roadway construction costs (I would assume this would also apply to race tracks) is $100/lane foot.
If you assume that the track is three lanes wide (40 feet) and 2.5 miles long, that gives you $4 million. Thats assuming no major grading obstacles. Add for parking lots, entry roadways, buildings, etc as desired.
EDIT: That may have gone up however, as asphalt has shot up with the cost of oil. You would be looking at about 20,000 tons of pavement, which runs $110 a ton, or $2.2 million in just materials.
2.5 miles of track would probably cost about 1 to 2 million per mile for an exceptional quality road surface assuming little to no clearing and minimal grading. That's just for laying the road. Now include track design, infrastructure, zoning, legalities, advertising, etc and it gets really pricey.

that cost 150 mill to build
"A group of us are in the process right now:

Here is what it is costing us:
2 million for land
+
1 million per mile of racetrack, so 2 million for 2 mile road course
+
1 million for parking lot and other infrastructure elements
+
1 million for clubhouse facility (read, large metal building with a cantina and lockerooms)
+
4 million for engineers, designers, architects, safety inspections, EPA inspections, insurance, safety, and other miscellaneous contruction and expense
grand total = 10 million and this is a really bare bones setup
Insurance and upkeep annually will be nuts so factor that in."
