NASCAR's L.A. Coliseum track will cost $1 million to build
Fox News
NASCAR will spend over $1 million to build the temporary track it is putting into the L.A. Memorial Coliseum for February's Bush Light Clash.
The pavement will cover the entire infield of the historic stadium and provide a quarter-mile track that will host several qualifying and heat races ahead along with main event during the Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum over the weekend of Feb 6-7.
While the price may sound high for a disposable track, Bristol Motor Speedway CEO Marcus Smith told the Associated Press that his venue spent $2 million to convert it to a dirt surface for the spring race held there this year.
It's also not the first time a paved track has been built at the Coliseum. The Stadium Super Trucks series laid down asphalt on part of the infield for an event in 2013.
