Kansas Speedway, in conjunction with the Cordish Co., has proposed a $600 million Speedway Hotel Casino that would overlook turn two of the track, which is host to the NASCAR Nextel Cup and Busch Series races this weekend. While four other competing proposals to operate a casino in Wyandotte County are in the vicinity of Kansas Speedway, this one is a pair of dice's throw from the checkered flag. "Our core business is motor sports," said Jeff Boerger, president of Kansas Speedway, "but we have to look at ways to enhance the facility, plus enhance an opportunity to continue our success." -- KC Star

Hotel & Casino!? That's fantastic!

Howabout some lights so the drivers can race later than 7:30 at night!

I'd be happy if they could just do that much.

That'd be pretty cool. Being in the hotel/casion and still able to watch the race from the place.
