Color me as shocked as anyone when news came out that NASCAR was planning a road race near downtown Chicago.

Now, it is a certain reality as tickets have officially gone on sale for the race that will take place this Summer along with a music festival.

The two-day event will be held July 1st and 2nd this Summer in the Windy City, and it should be a hot ticket.

It should be an amazingly unique event that opens the door for more innovation in the future when it comes to street racing across the United States.
