Route 66 Raceway 2021????

That will hurt. 66 was spaced far enough away from Byron,Grove and 41. Plenty of midwest cars to race at anyone track.

Unless they know something we don't about Covid in 2021 it looks like NASCAR has abandoned the Chicago market. Since NASCAR now also owns the dragstrip, NHRA is out as well.

Rock Falls WI would be a nice landing spot for the lost race....

I'd absolutely love that since there isn't a track closer to me, but it's in the wrong division.

This may be more about NASCAR than anything else. It was announced yesterday that Kentucky speedway lost their Race for 2021. Lots of changes going forward.

Edgewater near Cincinnati has been completely renovated and could easily accomodate a LODRS race, they had them there for over 40 years in the past.
