Almost 1 million cubic yards of dirt was moved to build the track. To put it in perspective, it would take nearly 100,000 dump trucks to move this much dirt. Lining up the trucks bumper to bumper, they would stretch from Tooele County to Denver.
Miller Motorsports Park has 3,637,000 cubic feet of asphalt surface. This is enough asphalt to cover 81 football fields.
Miller Motorsports Park has 14,295 cubic yards of concrete. This is equivalent to the weight of 750 Boeing 737 passenger jets.
48,000 tires were used for safety barriers — 43,000 on the main track and 5,000 on the Kart track. This would be enough tires to equip 12,000 vehicles.
Miller Motorsports Park is situated on 511 acres, which is 3.65 times larger than Disneyland.
Construction started on April 26, 2005. Track will officially open June 10, 2006.
Track is divided into two parts. The east track is 2.24 miles long and the west course is 2.2 miles long. The two can be joined for a road course that is 4.5 mile long, 40-50 feet wide and has a 24-turn layout that provides a variety of cornering speeds from 50 mph to well over 100 mph. The fastest cars and motorcycles will approach 200 mph on the 3.500-foot straight.
The Kart track is .89 of a mile long, with a main straight approaching 900 feet in length and 30 feet in width. The track is one of the fastest in the nation, yet it still has a wide range of different speed corners.
Miller Motorsports Park is within 35 minutes of downtown Salt Lake, 25 minutes from Salt Lake City International Airport and about 10 minutes from Tooele or Grantsville.
