Grand Sham to test at Indy

[JLMannin]

A blurb from Kurt Cave-in (http://www.indystar.com/article/20090814/SPORTS01/908140363/1004/SPORTS/Grand+Am+Series+will+be+testing+at+IMS)


The Grand Am Series confirmed Thursday it will test its cars on Indianapolis Motor Speedway's MotoGP course Sept. 3.
The event is solely a feasibility test, but it is possible that someday the Speedway could host an endurance race for sports cars.

The Topix posts from the indy faithful following the article are quite entertaining.

Geez.........I never saw that coming. I wonder what month they will hold that?

Because Daytona doesn't have enough empty seats?

They'll make up for it in volume. Or something. :shakehead

They better not. Any more suck concentrated at 16th & Georgetown will cause the local space time fabric to collapse into an ever expanding black hole that not even a flying crapwagon will be able to escape from.

Well, that's it; Indy is now just another race track. No difference then Fontana, Mid Ohio, Michigan, Road Atlanta, etc. Brilliant! Actually, that's a good thing. When NASA and SCCA start racing there I'll make sure to rent myself a Spec Miata and do that round. :thumbup: :shakehead

And this would be a bad thing exactly how?
