<div>Is it rarely used race track or is it normal
road/field used once a year for racing?<br>

<div>The cases I'm thinking of are normal city streets ~11
months of the year, which for 1 month are then closed off,
fenced, painted etc for Formula 1 & similar high-level
street-racing events, which will actually only last for ~4
days! <br>

<p>There is also the solar car 'race' from Darwin to Adelaide. Uses
the normal road and is open to the public while the 'race' is on.
Most of the 'track' is fixed as there is only really one road to
use. There can be variations from year to year where there are
alternatives but the vast majority of the 'circuit' is set in
place. <br>
</p>

</p>
<p>The more I think about it an 'event' key looks to be a solution
for those that want to map such things. Of course renders can
chose what to do with such things as is their right, but mappers
have a right to enter data? The data is verifiable, well known
locally and significant at least locally and in some cases
internationally. <br>
