On serious side, I don't think the 2.4 mile drive to the road course would be bad.

Ya,I agree

The road course guys are willing to travel a little to have fun..... not like those "other guys" that only know how to go straight

I actually kind of like the idea of Joliet. Obviously not everyone would be able to go to the road course. I just hope if they have a similar schedule like they did at Firebird, that there's a longer intermission between morning and afternoon sessions so that the lunchtime activities (should GM be unveiling anything else) can be witnessed by all

Yup. This way we can all watch Scott drive the Z-28 racer out onto the track.

I don't think I get enough time off in a year to be able to go all the way to Alaska and back on PTO. I'd probably have to work something out with my boss to see if I can get un-paid leave

NOLA Motorsports Park
11075 Nicolle Boulevard
Avondale, LA 70094
Concerns: Does it have a 1320?

Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis
10267 E Us Highway 136
Indianapolis, IN 46234
Concerns: No Road Course?

Heartland Park of Topeka
1805 SW 71st St
Topeka, KS 66619
Concerns: The return road for the 1320 is an integrated part of the road course. Could be an issue...

Someone mentioned this:
Monticello Motor Club
67 Cantrell Road
Monticello, NY 12701
Concerns: No 1320. And it definately does not have a place for vendors or an autoX to set up. Are there additional facilities close by?

Chicagoland Speedway (Oval Track)
&
Route 66 Raceway (Drag Strip)
500 Speedway Blvd.
Joliet, IL 60433
&
Autobahn Country Club (Road Course)
3795 CenterPoint Way
Joliet, IL 60436
Concerns: Not sure if it's really an "issue" but the Road Course is 2.4 miles away, but they do have the NASCAR oval track

National Corvette Museum
350 Corvette Drive
Bowling Green, KY 42101
Concerns: Where are the drag strip and autox located?

Brainerd International Raceway
5523 Birchdale Road
Brainerd, MN 56401
Concerns: Where's the road course? Is the 1320 part of the road course?

Charlotte Motor Speedway
5555 Concord Pkwy. South
Concord, NC 28027
Concerns: Is it too far East?

Pocono Raceway
Long Pond Rd.
Long Pond, PA 18334
Concerns: Their website is slow...

Bristol Dragway
151 Speedway Blvd.
Bristol, TN 37620
Concerns: Looks kind of spread out. No road course. Unless there's one nearby...

If I missed one, let me know. But from here on out, people should be providing legitimate information if they're submitting ideas

Has Mid-Ohio (near Columbus, Ohio) been ruled out?
