I hadn't heard anything about it. Not sure how long ago the Google image was taken, but there doesn't appear to be anything built other than the track itself.

Guy, I think you're onto something. A race track designed to mirror geoglyphs or even crop circles is the go! They should have used this theory when designing Qld Raceway and the result would have been much more entertaining.

Tweed farm road not a race track, council told | Echonetdaily

I believe the land owner... Thousands wouldn't.

If it looks like a race track and smells like a race track, it's obviously a farm service road!!!

I also need a service rd on my property to allow 'machinery' to move.
