Red Bull goes Air Racing in NASCAR Stadiums

Red Bull Air Race Coming to Fort Worth's Texas Motor Speedway | NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

quote:
“I’m excited that there will be two races in the U.S., and I’m a native Texan – from Corpus Christi – so it’s going to be cool racing in my home state, for sure,” said Chambliss. “We’ll be racing in the motor speedways in the two stops in the United States – Texas and Las Vegas. We did that previously in Germany, and it’s a really cool perspective from a spectator standpoint, because you’re actually looking down on the airplanes as they race through the gates.”

On a somewhat related note, Texas Motor Speedway is also installing a HUGE HUGE HUGE video board. I can imagine the ghost-bogey superimposition that is featured on Red Bull Air Race broadcasts, would be fun to watch real time as a plane is on the course, on such a large video board.
