VOTE: Where should NASCAR host next street race after Chicago?
It certainly made for a unique spectacle.

The third Chicago Street Race took place last weekend. It could be the last, though NASCAR and the Windy City could agree to extend the initial three-year contract, which ended with the 2025 event, for another year or two.
Or, it could head elsewhere.
The Athletic reported last month that NASCAR and San Diego had discussed the west coast city hosting a street race. Would you like to see that?
How about one in New York City with the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty visible or Seattle with the Space Needle in the background?
Philadelphia? Denver?
International spots like Toronto, Montreal, São Paulo or London?

Heck, maybe you'd want to see NASCAR really emphasize its roots with a street race in Daytona Beach.
