When New Hampshire International Speedway was built they also made
parking for the 50,000 or 100,000 fans that show up for the Winston
Cup and IRL race. There is hundreds of acres available. Is any of it
paved? Nope, all dirt.
(And before you think rallycross, I looked into that before there was
a rallycross program. The area is saturated with rocks, many if them
baseball sized. That's a real shame, the management is very SCCA
friendly but I can't see putting on a dirt event there.)
