Not sure if this goes in this section, but it seemed racing / track-day related:
Grand Am(?) testing in IndySome rumors have NASCAR abandoning IMS in a couple years because the track is too flat and the races aren't exciting. I'll believe it when it see it, but this will probably spark some talk of replacing the Brickyard 400.
Dunno about Rice's comment regarding starting during the day and finishing under the lights, though... I imagine IMPD and the State Police wouldn't love the idea of turning 150,000 drunks out to their cars in the dark.
