Mike Collins, I thought I saw somewhere that you were going to propose this idea to the event promoters...

Did it ever gain any traction?

60+ SMs running around the Inner Harbor would be quite a sight!

Still in active talks. Looks like it may be a more viable option for year two???

As of now it looks like the only way we can get in this year is if they get a cancel from on of the other Support Races.

It might be a long shot, but Baltimore does not have a "Signed" contract just an intent to race from a few sanctions...

Stay tuned

I can only imagine the waiting list of drivers you would have for this. Especially with the strong WDC program.

Not entirely dead, but the outlook for this year is VERY slim. However they have expressed an interest in MAYBE next year.

Not to steal any thunder from the Baltimore IRL race, but SM does have an opportunity to run with the pros this year. Registration is now open on MotorsportReg.com for an SM/IT support race with GrandAm on September 16-18 at Mid-Ohio. Currently there are only 7 SM's registered out of the 26 entries. Allowed classes are ITS, ITA, ITB, ITC, and SM. We will be running the Pro Course (without the chicane), and the limit will be 66 cars. There is a 30 minute practice session on Friday afternoon, a 30 minute qualifying session on Saturday morning, and on Sunday a 13 lap qualifying race, a 15 lap qualifying race, and a 19 lap trophy race. All this for $250 entry (before 9/6/11). And you can enjoy the Grand Am season finale which includes the Daytona Prototypes, the Rolex GT's, the Continental Challenge GS and ST, and FE Pro. I also heard ARCA Trucks might be running as a support group.

Register early to get a spot.
