Unfortunately there's not a dirt oval available as a track configuration. Few years ago, Scawen did state he is interested of updating Layout Square so that either:
1) There would be a selectable track configuration which would have a dirt area and probably a 1km walled square area as well. Or:
2) One of the track configurations would be a dirt area instead of tarmac in one of those squares between the 4 roundabouts. In this case, you could drive to there from area that is still tarmac. Scawen even made a very early prototype of it.
If that does indeed happen in the future, you could add a dirt oval there. I too would be excited, if Scawen indeed does continue doing that prototype and therefore adds a dirt and maybe that 1km walled square area into Layout Square.
Source, you can find some posts from him on page 1 there about this: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/95714
However, Rony (Eclipsed) has done an AWS 2025 race on Westhill "Dirt" oval. It doesn't have any actual mud/sand, but it's driven 100% on grass. That is probably the closest you can get of having a dirt oval. You can download it from here: https://www.lfs.net/forum/post/2114363#post2114363 - just download the .mpr replay, open it and save the layout in Shift+U mode.

Thanks, it's a big shame I just discovered the Shift+U mode.
I also made a couple of grass oval tracks - both on Westhill.

This one's also on Westhill.
For the UF1 to LX cars, a lap is about 30-40 seconds. Times at bottom of post.
Goodness - layouts are 10 years old

Also, I don't even know if this would work, but what you could try is that on Blackwood RallyCross (BL3), at the end of the first sand/mud section, you could try adding ramps and other Autocross objects to make a U-turn that would end up at the beginning of that aforementioned section. It would be kinda a dirt oval, though that track would probably only be about 50% of sand/mud
However, like I said, I can't guarantee this would work or if LFS would even allow it.

Or easier - the layout file is attached in main info post of the said series: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/109907-All-Wheel-Drive-Winter-Series-2025---information
