I know this was discussed a long time ago in this very forum. Someone suggested it would be a good idea if Milwaukee and RA did a little cooperative cross promotion. Well, they're doing it. Looks to be about $40 off. (but Mile rates are already reduced) Don't think I'd prefer 200 level seating at The Mile but it appears to be an honest effort.

The details
The high-speed, open wheel drama of the Champ Car World Series will make two Wisconsin stops during its 2006 season. Today in a joint announcement made by The Milwaukee Mile and Elkhart Lake’s Road America, a CHAMP CAR WISCONSIN Ticket is now available for motorsports enthusiasts to take in two race weekends in one attractive offer.
The Sunday afternoon, June 4 Time Warner Cable Road Runner 225 at The Milwaukee Mile will be the only oval event on the diverse Champ Car schedule. Driving champion Paul Tracy is looking to replicate his dramatic 2005 victory at The Mile, completing the winning move on a daring outside turn two pass on Jimmy Vasser to streak away to glory last June.
Champ Cars return to Elkhart Lake’s Road America September 22-24 for a 200-mile contest, matching the sprawling four mile circuit in Elkhart Lake with the skilled international cast of drivers. This will be the final domestic event on the 15-date Champ Car schedule. Series veteran Alex Tagliani wheeled into victory lane the last time Champ Car raced at Road America, the premier road course in the United States, in 2004.

For The Milwaukee Mile Time Warner Cable Road Runner 225 event weekend June 2-4:
