Le Mans series added to Baltimore Grand Prix
From the Associated Press:
Baltimore officials say the American Le Mans Series will also be part of the IZOD IndyCar Series next year on Labor Day weekend.
The Baltimore Grand Prix will have its inaugural event in 2011. It will take place on a temporary street circuit around the city's downtown Inner Harbor area and is called the “Festival of Speed.”
The American Le Mans Series includes different classes of cars — Prototype and Grand Touring — which race on the track at the same time.
Comments
I can read the headlines now "Entire city road budget spent on making downtown Baltimore a safe place for high speed races and the race weekend was rained out"
I'm just happy the city finally removed the speed bump on the hanover street bridge after 2 years of me riding over it. Now if they could just open up more green spaces for motorcycles and bicycles that would be great, oh wait, they'd rather spend their time and money on making the road race ready.
This entire thing is going to be a flop.
