OOTG: Will the Chicago Street Race be Successful?

Anticipation is building for NASCAR’s first ever street race this weekend in Chicago. Eric Estepp is among those who is excited, but even he needs to ask the question on everyone’s mind: Will it work? Eric tackles that question in this week’s Out of the Groove.

• In order to give every side a fair shake, Eric breaks down all of the biggest red flags, and the biggest green flags of the Chicago Street Race.
• Eric discusses how he feels about the quality of racing, the local impact of the event, Road America, and what NASCAR is likely looking to do with the race.
• Eric says that the race will either be great, or terrible, but it will be something at the end of the day.

This is one of the most highly anticipated, yet controversial events on this year’s NASCAR Cup Series calendar. Whether or not it will work, we will have to wait and see.
