[@andrewhayes88]

The June Montreal date could work, but I'm not sure how comfortable Formula 1 and the FIA would be to almost 'share' the track with NASCAR where traditionally their Canadian GP is Mid-June. This years race was on June 18th.

[@jacobshelor419]

It won't work. F1 is there that week.

[@Ofitus21]

To share track with the FIA you need for said series to effectively agree to be a feeder series to F1 that week. That means everything from teams using different paddocks and having to adapt to F1 pit lanes, to FOM controlling the broadcast and trackside advertisements. No way NASCAR would agree... A June 23rd date sounds way more reasonable for Nascar (2 weeks after F1, so the track is already set up and ready to go)

[@dannyalex7152]

Love these kinds of videos and hearing your ideas! Thanks for sharing Eric!!

[@RaynShikama]

I’m all for bringing Rockingham back, but if that doesn’t happen, what about making Bristol the All Star race? It is an SMI track and it’ll help keep them on the schedule twice- which is also good since it’s a playoff cutoff race so it’ll get drivers a chance on it earlier in the season. Bristol Spring is always kind of a low ratings race- but if it’s the All Star race, that could really help bring eyes onto it for the earlier Bristol. And honestly Bristol is a fun race with good bumping and banging which under the lights could be great for an All Star spectacle.

[@michaeljensen1817]

Just remember that chicago has until January to decide if they are renewing for another year, so the schedule might not come out until then. Hopefully they decide before then though.

[@Kartkid024]

It thought they signed a 3 year deal already.

[@michaeljensen1817]

@Kartkid024 it's a 3 year deal with promoters option for all of them. Since the government leaders changed, meaning the person who lobbied to have the race is out, there's a strong chance it won't happen again. The city of Chicago government has until January to decide if they want to host it again.

[@michaeljensen1817]

@Kartkid024 there is talk that nascar will put the schedule out before January, with it tentatively on it, having the Daytona road course as the replacement if it's not renewed in January. Since nascar owns Daytona, and nothing is happening that week at the track, they can easily make the change. It would be hard to have a different track on standby, since nascar is based in Daytona, they'd be able to pull it off the easiest.

[@DennyDeliversYT]

Heck yeah, I'd be totally thrilled if the Cup series returns to run the rectangle in the biggest way possible. I attended many a Brickyard 400 as a kid, and would get tickets to that event in a heartbeat. My very first in-person race was watching Harvick get that crown jewel win. Being during the NBC schedule, maybe a 2024 Brickyard would get the closer in the driver seat one more time (wishful thinking I know).

[@kfost91197]

It seems like everyone not in Northern California thinks that Sonoma belongs on the West Coast swing. There is that race isn't meant to be in March that no one gets. Sonoma Raceway gets a lot of money from camping and would be unable to have camping. Plus, the places to park are mud and hard to get out of. We also get rain that time of year. I'd expect Sonoma to stay right where it is in the schedule. I do like the LA Clash returning. But if that's the case, I'd have to choose between Las Vegas spring or the Clash as far as my first race next season.

[@IVALEEGJESVOLD-ju5je]

Perfect!

[@budfire1]

I think NASCAR should really look into thunderbolt raceway located in Millville, New Jersey. It's located right off a major highway. There is an airport plenty of hotel accommodations. And if you were to bring in the xfinity series, they can actually run on a different track on the same property called Lightning bolt raceway. New Jersey motorsports park. In my mind would be perfect spot in the nascar circuit. We can call it the Chesapeake Bay 250.

[@FusionRacing24]

I love this, great ideas. also, will you be at indy?

[@brewcityba11er67]

Indycar/Nascar could do a double header but this time at Road America vs Indy road course. Or a whole weekend in Wisconsin August 4th. Trucks and Indycar at Milwaukee and Xfinity and Cup at RA

[@johnnyboy830]

If this happened that be awesome, June gets decent weather in Montreal they get between 20 to 25 which is in the 70 for the American fans. With only 25 percent chances of rain which is not bad too. If they ever made your schedule Eric I would really be hyped

[@Derek_Anderline]

I would say Sonoma in March would be... tough. It would be pretty chilly, maybe mid 60s at best. It could very easily rain. And, if it rains, it would likely snow over the Sierra Nevadas and I can't see the teams wanting to schlep their expensive haulers with cars and war wagons inside over Donner Pass in a heavy snowstorm. Logistically it makes sense, but I think the weather is too much of a question mark...

Montreal June 9 is likely to be decent. It is just a few hours from Boston or NY or New Hampshire. The fly in your ointment is the F1 guys are there at that time..usually that week or the third week.

[@ThisDudelikesRacingEtc2023]

I would like to see Iowa Speedway get a Cup date. They did some renovation to the track, they added more suites on turn 1&2, turn 3&4, including the infield.

[@Buynot]

Potential hot take, but I think instead of Road America, that date should go to the Milwaukee Mile and make that the Nascar/Indycar doubleheader. Have Trucks run Friday night, Indy Lights and Xfinity on Saturday, then on Sunday you have Indycar in the early afternoon, immediately followed by a dusk/night race for Cup.

[@davidjohnson4203]

[@arbysandtehchief5494]

Roval last year was a real stinker after the late Gen 6 races being excellent. Pending how it looks this year i'd almost say axe it for the oval. If that were to happen, I'd put Charlotte Oval in place of Texas and the Roval becomes Daytona Road. (Might as well go big, right?)

[@MManning90]

I would push the Dover date to sometime in the summer or early fall. The past few Dover races have been postponed due to weather. I live 2 1/2 hours away from Dover and I can safely say this area is notorious for having rain that time of year. I would probably swap it with either Gateway or Texas.

[@jdowls9538]

If I remember correctly, Dover used to have a summer June race, and a "fall" September race. June was always a warm but not to warm spot. Early June is probably the best spot for Dover.

[@lolibop96]

I think if they keep Bristol Dirt, they should make it a night race. I think there should be more night races. And even a more surprising twist would be to make unusual tracks night races to test them out under different conditions. I was thinking making all the short tracks night races since I've really wanted to see a Dover night race but I was also thinking about making one of the road courses a night race. They did the Clash at the Daytona RC before. Maybe COTA or the Charlotte Roval. Another fun one would be since Daytona has a day race in the 500 and the night playoff race, one of the Talladega races could try it out. That's the long-shot that will probably never happen but it would definitely be a wild night.
