Grinding with the Grand Prix

I get asked about the progress of Baltimore Grand Prix a lot.  The proposed Indy Car street race, which would take place in on a two and a half mile course between Camden Yards and the Inner Harbor in the summer of 2011, is still in the development stage.  While questions still need to be answered about up front costs and noise abatement, the overall response has been amazingly positive. In fact, downright enthusiastic.

Still, a lot of people don't know what the race entails, who participates, and what kind of events surround it.  Supporters and promoters have been holding a series of community meetings and public gatherings to talk about the circuit, the governing body, and what staging such a production entails.

I just learned that Jay Davidson, Baltimore native and legal counsel for Baltimore Racing Development, has his own blog.  You can read more about the race and the league and even the players by checking in with Jay at http://charmcitycurrent.com/brd/  

We're hoping to hear more in the near future about this exciting proposal.
