If i may I’d like to point out the flaws in all 3 schedules for next year and they would be Rockingham has bust attendance the 2 truck races it had previousily
hosted where Mexico is not a safe country to be in do to buttloads of level 3 & 4
travel advisories as far as Lime Rock Park goes it would be the configuration
of the track which is not suited to anything making 400 or more horsepower
do to it’s narrow width.
But NA$CAR makes the most money with these schedules! You can bet Mexico pays more for their version of Brian’s product than Richmond.
Wasn’t Mexico a logistical nightmare the last time they tried this? I thought that was also the reason why they scrapped going there. Guess the money was too good to pass up. Let’s hope the teams get some of it.
