It’s Monday. Woo-hoo! Motorsports history was made yesterday as Shane Van Gisbergen took the checkers in Nascar’s first-ever street race through downtown Chicago. The Grant Park 220 was a wild, chaotic race that was delayed by hours of heavy rain. But once the rain finally let up, it turned out to be a challenging race course that was a hell of a lot of fun to watch. Undoubtably it was a huge effort to put this together, but Chicago embraced the idea and made it happen. I really enjoyed it and I hope that Nascar continues to innovate by taking the sport in new directions.
