I'd rather see the race stay in august though, it's traditional date.

if the USGP falls through, i'm sure the rolex or LeMans would jump at it in no time. It's a pretty nice road course

Just curious...why would you rather it stay in August and not be televised?

 

[Magnethead]

not be televised? It'd be televised, but ESPN wanted it moved up so it would be ESPN's first race instead of second. I just feel it should stay in august on it's traditional date.

I think the schedule is getting some major changes, plus Nascar wanted to spread out the 2 dates with Pocono getting its' second race later in the season. It will be intersting to see if NHIS loses its' second date, rumors are that it will to Vegas, which would get a second race in the Chase.
