Exactly! Thank you.
Only an idiot would schedule Belle Isle (Detroit) the week after the 500. They need to be at an oval track the week after the 500. The Milwaukee Mile wasn't a Week-After-The-500 tradition for no reason.
The excitement of these "death-defying" Indy heroes just doesn't translate to a street race.
(Oh goody! I hear there's a new season finale set for '16! A street race in Boston! The drama is building already!
