Two fucking weeks!

Two fucking weeks!

Our hotel smelled like dead hooker vagina (before you ask I had gotten a detailed description from beardown)

GD is not going to be happy one damn bit.

What did I do to cause Hawg to put me on ignore?

CHICAGO -- Want a reserved seat when NASCAR hosts two days of races along Chicago's lakefront streets next summer?

It'll cost you at least $465 for two-day reserved tickets when they go on sale Thursday, nearly $4,300 for the priciest option, the organization announced. Two-day general admission tickets will go on sale later and start at $269.

The course covers 2.2 miles and is expected to tie up part of Grant Park for two weeks for preparation and related events - a prospect that has some alderpersons grumbling. NASCAR's Xfinity Series race will be held on July 1 and its signature Cup Series will be on July 2.

Following are some of the reserved ticket options people can buy:

- The President's Paddock Club, situated above the "pit road," according to NASCAR, "giving patrons a direct view into the pit boxes and a panoramic view of nearly the entire course ... includes full weekend access to both races and concerts."

-The Fountain Club, which provides a seat at the start and finish lines in front of Buckingham Fountain.

- The Balbo Club, reserved seats at street level.

- The Congress Suites with second-level seating decks.

- The Garden Suites, street level across from the pit road along the front stretch of the race.

A trio of downtown alderpersons have complained that City Council members were kept out of the loop while the mayor's office and the park district negotiated the NASCAR deal.

And they have questioned if Chicago's $500,000 take - plus 15% of net commissions on concession and merchandise, and $2 per admission ticket sold - is enough to justify NASCAR squatting on two-plus miles of a prime downtown location for half a month in the city's high season.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

No thanks, I'm still going to go to Austin or Vegas next fall for real racing.

Wow, you really hate to watch good Nascar racing, I am sorry. But the good ol boys sure do like it.

Road course racing might look cool especially F1 and Indy cars. But it really is quite boring to me. It has become a contest of making the best pit stops more than racing.

I'm going to Miami, and yes it's very very expensive. But I've never been. And odds are I never will again. There's something about there's only 20 drivers in the world navigating the the 20 best cars in the world. They're like Apollo astronauts or something, and I want to see it.

Because you are stupid, maybe read some books educate yourself.

We walk, talk, and won't shit our pants

Isn’t F1 more like watching 4 guys drive the greatest cars in the world and watching the rest jockey for position on a Netflix show?

screw racing around in a circle, give me cars doing donuts and spinning in circles any day. That is really cool.

if you want to see real racing, jump on the Bishop Ford at about 11 on Thanksgiving or Christmas/Eve.

No, it's like that every day. I blame the Hoosiers

The victims are the American People and the Republic itself.

If you are on the tollway west of Rt 31 and going less than 85, you are getting passed.

I was on the Bishop Ford last week. The inbound was so full of bad pavement it made 70 a challenge.

True. And to make matters worse, the on ramps put you into traffic where WAY too many idiots use the right lane as a passing lane.

I stopped going on the Calumet at night if possible years ago

90 is a fast drive there. 88 west of Dekalb is a joy as well as long as the police aren’t around and has the added benifit of virtually no traffic much of the time.

CHICAGO — The future of one of the city’s biggest annual events is up in the air as NASCAR gets ready to take over Downtown streets — and Grant Park — for several weeks this summer.

The Taste of Chicago, a city staple since 1980, was notably absent from Grant Park’s summer events schedule this year, according to Park District records obtained by Block Club.

It turns out, the city had planned to host the Taste July 1-2 at Polk Bros Park, 600 E. Grand, near Navy Pier — the same weekend that NASCAR will pack Downtown streets and Grant Park with spectators and race cars, Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd) told reporters Tuesday.

Reilly, whose ward includes Navy Pier and part of Grant Park, blocked a special events ordinance at a Committee on Special Events, Cultural Affairs & Recreation hearing Tuesday after learning of the scheduling snafu.

“This was a planning disaster,” Reilly told The Daily Line. “So to give a blank check to the administration for the special events for this year without these explanations, I think would be irresponsible. I think the next mayor should make this decision, not the lame duck.”

Ald. Nick Sposato (38th), committee chair, told Block Club he agrees with Reilly the incoming administration should decide when and where to hold the Taste.

“I would be pretty pissed if all this stuff was going on in my ward with … nobody consulting me about it,” Sposato said.

A spokesperson for the city’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, which organizes the Taste of Chicago, said in an email statement they “are finalizing details for 2023.” But it is unknown how today’s delay in committee will affect that.

“Taste of Chicago is a beloved summertime tradition that is indeed happening this year. We are finalizing details for 2023 and will be announcing dates and locations for DCASE’s signature summer events in the coming weeks,” spokesperson Madeline Long said.
