About 10000 of your garden variety solar lamps.

You could hardwire some power out to it and put some poles up with lights on them or invest in some portable lighting but I think those are pricey

the main issue with lighting is the shadows, you would need some serious lighting to have even enough lighting,

you have to have enough that the tops of the jumps aren't shadowed, with the shadows you miss judge the jumps and it can be very dangerous

x2 sounds like a bad situation, ive raced at a track before where it was a night race under lights and I felt a little sketched out at times,
