AMLS headed to OKC

Autoblog said: The American Le Mans Series is planning on expanding its calendar over the next few years with a number of new races held at new venues. And the first of the new additions is set to be held in Oklahoma City. The race is earmarked for a new street course to be carved out of the city's Adventure District, to take place for the first time in May 2013, in between Mother's Day and Memorial Day. That should slot the event in between Long Beach in April and the main event at Le Mans that precedes the back-to-back races in July and August. The last time the series visited this part of the country was at the 2007 Lone Star Grand Prix in Houston, when ALMS had its busiest calendar with 12 races. The Oklahoma City race is set to be joined by other new venues currently under consideration. Check out an official statement by the ALMS about the race after the jump.

Come on down, there is a great BBQ place just up the block from my house.

I used to live on NW 10th street many years ago. OKC is a great city.

As ridiculous as that USED to sound, the way things are going in this world, it wouldn't surprise me at all....

Actually, we only have about 9 more days, judging from the billboards around here:

That guy on the billboard looks like he's in the middle of one of those Elvis killing poops!

Is it just me or does the phrase "after the jump" drive anyone else crazy?
