Wait so they're going to build that Paddock, the surrounding stages and suites in less than 2 weeks (based on road closures)? Or have they already started construction? Seems pretty ambitious if they haven't already started.

Nice job of covering your ass, Rodney....Somebody from NASCAR must have reminded him that critical opinions are not welcome.

Drivers and crew chiefs have spoken out on things they dont like since its inception.

Rodney is losing his cash cow. Whatever or whoever, it would be smart business to leave the attitude at the house.

So I've gotten about 3 missed calls/voicemails and 5 emails about NASCAR in Chicago from what is definitely a real NASCAR person. Anyone else getting this kind of stuff? It's happened soooo many times and I'm on zero Chicago-related mailing lists I' starting to wonder if I've somehow won something or if they're just desperate to sell tickets???

they called me too! Since I got home from Wilkesboro I had two calls from a number I didnt know. The second time the same number called, I picked up and it was a rep asking me if I was interested in tickets for the weekend. I told the fella they'll have my interest when Cup goes back to Chicagoland. I assume they got my number from me filling it out at NWB in having interest to buy tickets for that next year and I was always on the Chicagoland Speedway list for tickets.

Could it be that they're having a hard time moving tickets for the street race ?

I've had a ticket rep contacting me on a regular basis ever since I had to reallocate the money I put toward the cancelled 2020 Chicagoland race.

After I put the funds to last year's Michigan race he been calling, texting, and emailing in an attempt to sell me on this year's race at Michigan.

Still undecided if I want to contact him regarding general admission street race tickets . . . .

It's interesting as we're all discussing ISC tracks. I have never been to an ISC track but did look into Phoenix tickets one year for a trip. I'm assuming that's how ISC/NASCAR has my number.

I've been to a ton of SMI tracks. They have never been hounds like this. A call or two each off season 5 years ago but nothing in recent years. Maybe they just assume they can pencil me in for a race or 2 a year now guaranteed lol.
