Grand-Am Road racing in Kansas City

Road racing fans,

It's official. The Kansas Speedway, the France family owned Nascar track in KC, announced that an all new infield road race course for Grand-Am Road Racing will begin construction immediately following the Spring 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup STP 400.

Imagine that, International ALMS - American LeMans Series - sports car/road racing right here in Kansas City by Fall 2012 !

Now, if the SCCA National Championship races could return to middle America - at Kansas Speedway - all would be right with the world.

cheers,

phillip g

That is great news! I only live a few minutes from the track. I hope they offer track days.

Dan,

I think a correction is due. GRAND AM is the Rolex Series and not the ALMS (American LeMans) series.

Sorry for my error - but still great road racing in KC to come.

cheers,
