This resolution gives the promoter, Baltimore Racing Development, the support necessary for the governing body, Indy Racing League, to sanction the race as part of its circuit. They indicated this is likely once the Council gave its blessing.
So the process begins, even before a date is selected. Securing sponsorships, identifying media partners, planning infrastructure, and all the other elements in a major production will begin as the two year clock ticks down.
Camden Yards will be in the center of the action, with the service road along Russell Street as the pit and grandstands for spectator seating along this gateway to Baltimore. One of the hairpin turns will be near M&T Bank Stadium, and the course will run along Pratt to the Inner Harbor, around the Science Center (another hairpin) down Conway to Howard with a quick turn on Camden and a spin past Pickles. Terraces wrapping the Convention Center will overlook action on three sides.
We'll keep you on top of all the progress as plans unfold.
