Best SST race locations you would like to see happen

Being a NASCAR fan, I would love to see the SST race or even have an expo race at Talladega or Daytona. More than enough room and using the banking could be interesting track layout. Of course Charlotte has always been known to bring interesting entertainment during the Cup race weekends.

Outside of NASCAR tracks, the Superdome in New Orleans would be cool or Cowboys Stadium in TX.
Be cool if the ran at Estadio Azteca Stadium in Mexico.

Zoom - they are racing at Cowboy Stadium this year... on July 13th. Check that one off. I imagine that there will be new venues added to the 2nd season of SST... maybe even raising the total number of races!

I would like them in the North East, from Pa on up! The Meadow Lands/ Giants Stadium would be the cats ass! Rentschler Field, home the Uconn Huskeys football maybe. Rentschlers has a 40,000 seat capacity so IF they did hold the event there 25,000 people in the stands would look like a well attended event! Then there's the New York Red Bulls Stadium! This place is awesome, but sits dead in the water with exception to a couple of soccer gamer a month! C'mon, a Speed Energy SST event in the Red Bull Stadium.... The Dover infield?

I'd pick MetLife Stadium in NY/NJ or Lucas Oil Stadium in Indy . Think Indy would be a great venue since its in racing country , plus Forest Lucas is a big offroad fan .

Lucas Stadium is a great choice! I forgot that one! It's in smack dab (like that...smack dab, like Darned tootin)in the middle of the city, mall across the street! Great city last time I was there!

Northeast for sure! Eldoro, Watkins Glen (perhaps the boot portion?), Hershey Park actually has a sweet outdoor stadium.

I didn't know that! I'm not sure if 15k seats are enough? I think there are probably more off road people in PA than CT but I could be wrong. I think I'm the only racing enthusiast in the state! I mention Dakar to my friends and just smile that empty , wtf is Dakar smile...

I have already mentioned Williams Grove. It has a huge dirt track fanbase. It would bring more fans than Phoenix. Baltimore wouldn't be considered the Northeast but that is where I would push for. M&T bank stadium is right in the inner harbor and would be a great venue.

Grove, Big Diamond or Grandview would be great as would Pocono (I'm like 15min from that) or that baseball stadium they built in Allentown/Whitehall for the Ironpigs.

WRONG! Not going to bring more fans than Phoenix. Phoenix/Tempe had GREAT turnouts back during the Mickey Thompson days. I would not use the very first SST race in Phoenix as a measuring stick.

All I'm saying is that the World of Outlaws draws as big a crowd at Williams Grove. And I like to believe the SST puts on a better show. Those of us in Northeast the are completly shut out of a race this year and this is the most populated part of the country. Pocono used bring in 160,000+ for Nascar and the track is in the middle of nowhere. It's time for a new series to take over.
