I'd use the old road course at MIS. I'd extend it to run up across the backstretch and infield to the tri oval (making the pit area available and back across the infield to the old road course again.

I might actually go to one of these things if it were there.

I miss the old Michigan 500 with the Indycars. Was a great race!
Yesterday’s broadcast was touting the resurgence of Detroit and GM (positioned via the Chevy engines that dominated until Indy), then the track fell apart and showed it’s just one more dying part of the region.

cheers

Didn’t the MIS “long” road course actually have a loop that went outside the oval at one time? I remember going there with some SCCA racer friends in the early 70s.

As I remember his “bugeye” Sprite looked pretty small on that track, LOL.
