LA Coliseum Rumors circulate of NASCAR race in Los Angeles   Racing

They might finally add a real short track to the NASCAR Cup Series scheduleBy short track, I mean a track under a half-mile. A real temper-flaring short track. The Busch Clash is an exhibition race held at Daytona International Speedway, one week before the official opening of a new season via the Daytona 500. The race features a limited field of NASCAR drivers. Clash Criteria: Playoff drivers (from previous season), Daytona Pole Award winners, former Clash race winners and former Daytona 500 pole winners. Traditionally, the race was held on the 2.5-mile oval in Daytona Beach, Florida. For 2021, the race was moved to the Daytona Road Course for the first time. LA ColiseumNASCAR race in LA Coliseum? But, much bigger changes may be pending for the opening race of the season. Rumors are circulating that the Busch Clash could move to the LA Coliseum. Rumors are circulating that this is the plan for the 2022 season. It would debut NASCAR’s Next Gen car in spectacular fashion. However, it remains unclear if the Next Gen machine will be used. The stadium traditionally hosts football games. If a race track was installed on the field, it would be similar to that of Bowman Gray Stadium in North Carolina. It’s brilliant. Typically, NASCAR races with 40 car fields. It makes going to tracks under a half-mile a bit of a challenge. With the shortened field of the Busch Clash it opens the door for NASCAR to visit much smaller tracks. This would be a bullring short track in the middle in a major US city. The 2022 NASCAR schedule has yet to be released. Typically, schedules are released in the Summer. This year, there’s been a delay in it’s release. Reportedly, NASCAR is in ‘serious’ talks to make the event a reality per The Athletic on Monday.

They replaced the bullring short tracks with limited seating capacity for a pack of cookie-cutter 1.5-mile tracks. Most of these tracks were built in or near major cities: Chicagoland Speedway; Texas Motor Speedway, Kentucky Speedway, Kansas Speedway, Auto Club Speedway, Nashville Superspeedway, Atlanta Motor Speedway, Michigan International Speedway and Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Now, NASCAR has admittedly made a mistake. As president Steve Phelps took over, he noted these prior mistakes. And since then, changes have been happening, rapidly.
