From Illinois......too costly at $4+ for a gallon of gas. Would really like to see something in the Mid-West next year. Road America in Wisconsin....Mid-Ohio Complex....just to name a couple possibilties.
What would be awesome is to have it at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway! You have a 2 1/2 mile oval, a road course, and the Museum there is fantastic. The Drag Strip is not too far away either. Easy to get in and out. Indianapolis is a great city as well! Yep.....Indy gets my vote!
If you do it in the Mid-West area, definately later in the year, June-September.
